About the /etc/securetty function
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.
