Subject: [rhn-users] Root login with telnet

Hi all,

I've noticed that when trying to telnet into RHEL AS 4, and NOT using
SSH, I am unable to log in as root directly, I have to log in as user
and SU.

But with SSH connection, I can login with root account straight away.

Is there a way to change this security feature so direct root login can
be done with regular telnet?

Thanks

Michael
