Bug Description

Binary package hint: monopd

Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04

monopd:
  Installed: 0.9.3-4ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.9.3-4ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.9.3-4ubuntu1 0
        500 http://mirror.pacific.net.au jaunty/universe Packages
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

I expect, when no other users are logged in, to be able to shutdown my system without having to enter a password.
If this monopd is running, it causes the user 'nobody' to login. When you click shutdown a message shows up asking for your password as there are multiple users logged in.
