You may want to look at /etc/securetty. But be aware that, once someone becomes root by any mechanism, they could undo your change. Also, you may want to put a password on grub so someone can't just break into single user mode and change things that way. Also, this doesn't prevent one from booting off a CD distribution like knoppix and editing things that way too. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Richard Kurth Sent: Saturday, April 24, 2004 11:29 PM To: redhat-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Prevent log in as root Is there a way to Prevent anyone from logging in as root.
