Talking config xxcreensaver and stop root login


Hello,

I have two questions. I need to know how to set the xscreensaver for all users. Its currently not working. Also, I need to know how setup my system so that root is not able to login, that you must use a user account. to login.

Thanks in advance

you dont want to totally lock root out..............you'll need to login or "su" to root sometimes..............

/etc/securetty is the file used to limit which konsole root can login on..
