Disable shutdown and reboot options from gnome menu

[Olafur Arason]

When you have followed the gdm and ctrl alt del instructions.
You have to then do the following:
sudo chgrp admin /sbin/halt /sbin/shutdown
sudo chmod 550 /sbin/halt /sbin/shutdown
do:
sudo gedit /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory/apps/gnome-session/options/%gconf.xml
and copy this into it
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="logout_prompt" mtime="1132842782" type="bool" value="true">
        </entry>
        <entry name="logout_option" mtime="1132842794" type="string">
                <stringvalue>logout</stringvalue>
        </entry>
</gconf>
