Re: Root login from remote system

["VaibhaV Sharma" <helpindore@xxxxxxxx>]

edit the file /etc/securetty i your favourite editor and add some terminals
to it

I added
ttyp0
ttyp1
ttyp2
ttyp3

this is actually the list of terminals from which root is allowed to log in,
and are supposed to assumed as secure terminals (experts please correct me
if I am wrong)
