A while back someone had mentioned in order to restrict root logins
just change the valid ttys to the console device and sure enough
this will work.
#1 Question: does this valid tty change also restrict "su - root"
to that device.
#2 Question: I cannot get the syslog daemon to put the "su to root"
entries anywhere. Does this work on aix?
Normally it's "auth or auth.notice" entry
in the conf file. Has anyone been able to get this
to work.
