Disable Interactive Boot
To disable the ability for users to perform interactive startups,
edit the file '/etc/sysconfig/init'.
Add or correct the line:
'PROMPT=no'
The 'PROMPT' option allows the console user to perform an
interactive system startup, in which it is possible to select the
set of services which are started on boot.
Parameter:
Technical Mechanism:
Using interactive boot,
the console user could disable auditing, firewalls, or other
services, weakening system security.
Fix:
grep -q ^PROMPT /etc/sysconfig/init && \
sed -i "s/PROMPT.*/PROMPT=no/g" /etc/sysconfig/init
if ! [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "PROMPT=no" >> /etc/sysconfig/init
fi
