Allow non-admin user to shutdown/reboot Server 2012
Anyone know if a setting exists to allow a non-admin user to shutdown a server?
Obviously I can set the "Allow Server to shutdown without logon" GPO but that is not quite the same thing. I am looking for a way to properly assign the shutdown right to a particular user if possible.
Solution 1:
You can assign this in either a GPO or Local Security Policy.
The setting that you're looking for is in Computer Configuration > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment > Shutdown the system
