Listmates,
Someone more clever than I must surely have solved this. How can I set
through .bashrc or some other more secure way, the ability to alias "su"
with its password so I don't have to type my root password every time I
su. I have a very secure pw that is a bear to type 50 times a day.
alias su='su; <password>' or
alias su='su root <password>' or
alias su='su root; <password>'
Don't work. It almost looks like it would take a separate script to
handle the "Password: " chat that su returns. Does anyone have a
solution for this?
P.S. http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/17142.html has a number
of good .bashrc examples.
