Brief Description of Problem:
-----------------------------
Has two problems
1. "too many users logged in" message when trying to login
2. wanted to login as root directly when using rlogin
The first one was the license problem, requested him to install
OSF-BASE and OSF-USER licenses
For the second one told him that I'll do some testing/research and
let him know

| 3093.1 | How to annoy your security gods... | AMCUCS::SWIERKOWSKI | Quot homines tot sententiae | Tue Jan 28 1997 16:37 | 35 |
Greetings! >>> 2. wanted to login as root directly when using rlogin For this to work on my system, I added the following line to /etc/securettys: ptys FWIW, if you want to login as root via SET HOST/LAT add lines similar to the following in /etc/securettys: /dev/lat/620 # I copied these from /etc/inittab after invoking /dev/lat/621 # latsetup... . . . You realize this is a glaring security hole and may not make the security gods too happy at the customer's site so as long as we're really opening up the system, if you want ftp access to the system using the root account, add the following line to etc/ftpusers: #root I believe that some/all of this may not work if C2 (i.e. "Enhanced Security") security is enabled (via the secsetup script). See the man pages for siainit command and the "Security" manual in the doc set for more details, cheers...
