No, not under any distro I'm familiar with... It's under /etc/securetty... You add the tty of the device you want to allow root access to, like pts/0... DON'T DO THIS THOUGH, unless you don't care that your root password will be sent PLAINTEXT over the internet...



He may not be telneting to it across the internet. He may only be doing it from his local network.

That being said, I like almost everyone else, recommend ssh *and* su, though I'm guilty of logging in as root across the internet with ssh.
