Look in /etc/pam.d/su file for description of issue. For example, RedHat comes with "wheel" line commented out. This is about Linux flavor. Every distribution can prefer its own way. But by "default", pure and plain Unix does not use such tricks. May be I wrong in last sentence, because all of them provides one or another trick to improve default behavior. I have experience work with Solaris, HP-UX and AIX. All of them has some extra config files/directories/databases to close the things together. But because none of them standard (which command standard in Unix ? ;-), I insist that default behavior is open access for all. -- Oleg Volkov System Administrator SHUNRA Software Ltd. http://www.shunra.com +972-9-7643743/93121(w) +972-51-601914(m) _______________________________________________ cobalt-security mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-security
