NAME
       securettys - Secure terminal database file

DESCRIPTION
       Security	 Note  The  terminal database file used on a trusted system is
       /etc/auth/system/ttys and is documented in the ttys(4) reference page.

       The /etc/securettys file specifies the tty lines	 that  are  considered
       secure and permit logins as root.

       Each  line  in the file contains the pathname of the special file for a
       terminal.  A number sign (#) character can be used  for	comments.  The
       following  example  is  typical and allows root to log in from the con‐
       sole, from the X-display, and from tty00:

       # Terminal lines for root logins # /dev/console :0 /dev/tty00

       If this file does not exist, root can log in only from the console.

       To allow root to log in from any pseudoterminal, add the	 keyword  ptys
       to this file. (This keyword does not require the /dev prefix.)

FILES
       Specifies the pathname of the file.
