SECURETTY(5) Linux Programmer's Manual SECURETTY(5) NAME securetty - list of terminals on which root is allowed to login DESCRIPTION The file /etc/securetty contains the names of terminals (one per line, without leading /dev/) which are considered secure for the transmission of certain authentication tokens. It is used by (some versions of) login(1) to restrict the terminals on which root is al- lowed to login. See login.defs(5) if you use the shadow suite. On PAM enabled systems, it is used for the same purpose by pam_securetty(8) to restrict the terminals on which empty passwords are accepted. FILES /etc/securetty SEE ALSO login(1), login.defs(5), pam_securetty(8) COLOPHON This page is part of release 5.10 of the Linux man-pages project.
