What's machinectl?
A utility like xm(1) used to control certain aspects of virtualization guest.
Would it be used to add the above?
No. xm and machinectl are used on the host. The securetty issue occurs in the guest.
So in a non-vm setup with securetty being used to monitor specify TTY's available for remote login from a client, there is no 'guest', so how would you manage things in a "remote", non-vm setup, wouldn't the pam module still apply (more than one person has noticed the drop in remote compatibility in more recent versions 12.x+ of OSuse, perhaps using 'vm's, predominantly or solely for testing is related to that? Just a thought...
I see it used in /etc/pam.d/remote as well as /etc/pam.d/rlogin.
rlogin is clear, but what progs use 'remote'?
Ever bothered to look at the file?
--- Nope -- doesn't exist:
which remote -bash: type: remote: not found Ishtar:law/bin> man remote No manual entry for remote
FWIW -- I've found 'rlogin' to be about 3-5X faster than ssh (over a closed/internal network).
I've found DOS to boot significantly faster to prompt than Windows. Does not mean that it is desirable.
Sorry, but I have all the same programs and features available using 'rlogin' on a 'closed-network', as using ssh. If you find DOS to provide the exact same features at 3-5x the speed, I suggest you reconsider it. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
