What's a console
The keyboard/monitor that's locally attached to the system (server).
What if you don't use that (or the box doesn't have them) and instead
always connect via X/freenx/ssh?
and what does it have to do with a unix-like system?
Among other things, the console user has (or can have) special permissions that
are set by /etc/security/console.perms and /etc/security/console.perms.d/
Seems like a really, really bad idea for an operating system that
permits remote access and doesn't care where you are.
