There are many ways, but do not forget it can be a very large security risk
when doing so.

Edit /etc/securetty and add ttyp0 possably 1 2 and 3 also just incase ttyp0
is in use.

Use 'ssh' Secure SHell, it uses encription. (Needs to be run on both
machines)

Or do it the more accepted way. (But still a security risk)
Login to the machine with your own 'user account' when your in do
'su - root' you will then be prompted for the root passwd.
