How to restrict root to login to the telnet or rlogin.

I wasnt to grant access only for console.

[A. Clay Stephenson]

Create a file, /etc/securetty, with a line containing "console". The file should only be writable by root.

[Rick Garland]

Put the word CONSOLE in the /etc/securetty file.

This says to only allow direct root logins on the console.

Other users who have the root passwd (hopefully they are your other sys admins) can login as themselves then do "su -" to become the root account.
