Yes, I have root access to the machine.

Problems started when I tried to disable ssh root login. I created a new user, 
with it came a new group. Then I logged via ssh as the new user and I tried su 
but from that user I cannot access to su becaouse of permissions.

I can still login as root...

Thanks

Davide
