Until https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=833253 I never even knew pam existed, much less how to customize it, while pam's man page isn't even 2 screens long. The man page refers to /etc/pam.conf, but this file does not exist. /etc/pam.d/ exists, but has over 50 files in it that the man page says nothing about. :-(
There is "man pam.d"
It's longer, but if it has an answer, I'm not seeing it.
Possibly there is a file in there that mentions telnet. And another in xinet.d.
There is a telnet file there, that defaulted to 'disable = yes'. I doubt xinetd has anything to do with the remaining prohibition of root login, since as other user I can login.
Of course that not allowing root login is intentional. You are fighting against the design. Maybe configurable, dunno.
Even the telnetd man page implores to use sshd instead.
Then why fight it Felix, you will be assimulated. :-) -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
