Enable securetty PAM module
Issue
securettyhas been disabled by default since RHEL8 1. However, there is a security requirement to enable it.- The documentation mentions "add a line enabling the
pam_securetty.somodule to the appropriate files in the/etc/pam.ddirectory, and create a new/etc/securettyfile". What is the exact procedure to enable thesecurettyPAM module in RHEL8/9?
