I use this file to control the user login , I erase this file in my system so that the root can't directly to the system , it work fine , however the user in remote system can't rlogin to this host due to missing this file , could suggest if this file is not present , how to let remote user can rlogin to the local host ? thx.

Why not just allow root login on the console? Your going to beat yourself over the head if you don't allow no root access on anything, especially after a system crash and you have to login as root to repair your system. Without any type of root access, have fun getting into your system!
