start the yast module and in security and user section start local setting second or third option will be boot setting where you may define the action for alt+ctrl+del halt reboot or no action.

U can modify the file /etc/inittab line below:

ca::ctrlaltdel:put ur shutdown command here. i.e. poweroff

The statement above is from RedHat 9. Refer to ur own distro please...
