But if you are on a local trusted LAN and still want to continue, you can log in as a normal user and su to root. If you still want to log in as root directly (really a bad idea), add these lines to /etc/securetty: pts/0 pts/1 pts/2 ... (but it could be ttyp0, ttyp1, I am not sure. Do a 'who' on the computer you telnet to). Greetz, Sebastiaan -- NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem (also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98 16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a *real* 32-bit system.
