Is there a way to do this? I don't want ctrl-alt-del to reboot the machine.

its in /etc/inittab

Code:

# What to do at the "Three Finger Salute".
# ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -r now

i just commented the above line out. hopefully that won't kill anything

Yea, it won't kill anything, but

Code:

ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:echo "Go fuck yourself"

Reminds that you disabled, in the case you want the keystroke back to reboot, for instance :-)
