I've been looking at secondary authentication as a possibility, but I want
to eliminate
even the chance that we can do something else first. Kerberos would be my
first
choice since I've worked with SP's before.

The only way I know is to use Kerberos from MIT. It's rsh and rlogin ignore
this setting.

SSH will not work either.

Rexec might work.

Subject: [aix-l] uncomment /dev/console

   I am looking for a way to restrict remote root logins, while allowing
rsh, rexec, and rlogin to continue to function. Has anyone tried this in
AIX? I am told that Solaris and other UNIX's simply uncomment
/dev/console for that functionality. I am trying to emulate that behavior.

Thanks,
