DESCRIPTION</h3></div></div></div><p> pam_securetty is a PAM module that allows root logins only if the user is logging in on a "secure" tty, as defined by the listing in <code class="filename">/etc/securetty</code>. pam_securetty also checks to make sure that <code class="filename">/etc/securetty</code> is a plain file and not world writable. It will also allow root logins on the tty specified with <code class="option">console=</code> switch on the kernel command line and on ttys from the <code class="filename">/sys/class/tty/console/active</code>. </p><p> This module has no effect on non-root users and requires that the application fills in the <span class="emphasis"><em>PAM_TTY</em></span> item correctly. </p><p> For canonical usage, should be listed as a <span class="emphasis"><em>required</em></span> authentication method before any <span class="emphasis"><em>sufficient</em></span> authentication methods. </p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="sag-pam_securetty-options"></a>6.28.2.
