Hi.. By default Solaris don't allow telnet remotely using root account..
but it can be disabled
The setting is a file /etc/default/login
there is a entry
CONSOLE=/dev/console
you can disable it
using # as below
#CONSOLE=/dev/console
Cheers

Subject: TELNET question?
Hi All,
I have server with SUN Solaris 7, from a Workstation (Windows 98), I telnet
to the Server and logon using user root, but after I typed username and
password I saw following message:
---------------------------------------
Not on system console
Connection to host lost.
---------------------------------------
But if I telnet and logon with another username it done successfuly, and I
can su to root no problem.
So how can I telnet and logon using user root? Please help me!
Cheeres,
