Apart from using kdm, we want to prevent root logins from over X11 clients (remote logins). Login prevention for telnet and ssh is either done by /etc/login.access, /etc/login.conf and /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but the X11-login procedure seems to walk thriugh other paths offering a login session. Can anyone tell me how to disallow root logins from remote systems via X11/chooser login? Thanks. -- MfG O.
