HI,

I would like to restricted root access, but I've some problem with dns, how can i do that ?
example with dns:

root pts/0 Feb 22 10:07 . 1511486 (l26812.expect.com)

I can't trap @ip for this user.

Thanks !

Patrick
 
It depends on what you want to do to restrict the acces but you juste have to resolve l26812.expect.com with nslookup or something else
 
both because I would have @IP for restrict the access.

Your company lets people login as root over the network?
Many companies have set root so that remote login is not possible and users must either us sudo OR su to root, that way a log is kept of who is using root and what commands they are running.
in /etc/security/user find the root: stanza and add
rlogin = false
 
..or "chuser rlogin=false root"

Benno

...it really does get worse than this !!
