Getting ready to build LFS-7.5 and want to "head off" some situations
before I begin. Somewhere in my last {,B}LFS build, I lost--or never
had--the ability to run "su" or "su -" Yes, I have sudo, but I use the
Package Users--I know, I know--System and need "su." I have PAM
installed currently and used Christopher Gregory's solution, documented
on a recent post to "blfs-dev" and copied /etc/pam.d/su to
/etc/pam.d/su-1. This did not solve the situation.
Here is the result of running
-rwxr-xr-x 1 shadow-4.1.5.1 shadow-4.1.5.1 135159 Dec 11 2013 su
Does "su" need to be owned by root or run suid to work? Do the files in
/etc/pam.d need to be owned by root?
I know that PAM is a BLFS thing and I've never used it before my last
build. Needed it to satisfy dependencies for BLFS packages that I
wanted to use.
Thanks,
Dan
