nice,so in my system,i could have only # User privilege specification alain ALL=(ALL) ALL to allow root access only to myself ??? and also,to block access to my account from anywhere except the console,is there some information available on how to do it (basically,i would only allow loging in my system from the console and not anywhere else). thanks a lot for your help.
