the setting is in

User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu & Taskbar]

 

 

you can remove the shutdown in group policy and add the logoff button so

users never shut the server down..

From:

How can I prevent my users from shutting down the Terminal Server?

http://ts.veranoest.net/ts_faq_configuration.htm#preventShutdown

 

If your users can shutdown the Terminal Server, they are members of

the Administrator group.

If that's the case, there is no way to prevent them from shutting

down the server (and they will be able to do far more serious

damage than merely shutting it down!).

 

You can remove the Shutdown option from the Start Menu with a Group

Policy, but this is only a cosmetic change. Normal users will *not*

be able to actually shutdown the server, even if they see the

option, and Administrators *will* be able to shutdown the server,

even if they don't see the option.
