In fact, if you need to give access to some root-only binaries to a normal user, sudo(8) is the way to go. With "su -" you would allow full root-access, even though you might just want to allow specific commands to an unprivileged user. so. ehm. no! In fact, I would suggest to disable root, so that su - doesn't work at all. ./Marian _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-security To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
