Dear Sirs.

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.
