How do you disable the pop up window in CentOS 7 that notifies users of available updates?
I don't want any users to see that pop up - I should be the only authorized person doing updates on any of these workstations.

That said - are you sure that pop-up will allow a normal user to update without su/sudo permissions? (I honestly don't know).
Code: Select all
systemctl disable packagekit
systemctl stop packagekit
