Hi,

I'm configuring ssh 1.5.9 on HP-UX 10.20, and I'm attempting to restrict root shells 
for the non-UNIX techies while still allowing them to su to other users.  I've set up 
the following:

##
# User alias specification
##

User_Alias      OTHER_SYSADS=usera,userb
User_Alias      UNIX_SYSADS=self

...

##
# Command alias specification
##

Cmnd_Alias      SHELLS=/usr/bin/sh,/sbin/sh,/usr/bin/csh,/usr/bin/ksh,/usr/bin/p
osix/sh,/usr/bin/keysh,/usr/old/bin/sh,/usr/bin/rsh,/usr/bin/rksh
Cmnd_Alias      SUPER_USER=/usr/bin/su *root*,/usr/bin/su [!-]*,/bin/su *root*,/bin/su 
[!-]*
Cmnd_Alias      PASSWORD=/bin/passwd root
Cmnd_Alias      VISUDO=/usr/local/sbin/visudo

...

##
# User specification
##

# UNIX sysadmins can run anything without a password
UNIX_SYSADS     ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL

# Other sysadmins can run most things but can't su to root, run root shells, or
# edit sudoers, the sudo log, or syslog.conf.
OTHER_SYSADS          ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL,!SHELLS,!SUPER_USER,!VISUDO,!PASSWORD,!SUDO_LOG
,!SYSLOG_CONF

This configuration doesn't work quite as planned.  The problem is that I can't figure 
out how to allow the other admins to su to other users except root.  I know the sample 
sudoers file that comes with the sudo package shows the following lijnes to restrict 
root access:

# somedude may su to anyone but root and flags are not allowed
somedude        ALL=/usr/bin/su [!-]*, !/usr/bin/su *root*

However, this seems to still allow root access if somedude simply types "sudo su -".

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

-Dave
