After posting my question on the HP ITRC here http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=1036430 it appears that pam-0.79-8 works by adding the root_only option to /etc/pam.d/su .
But adding this option to the latest version of redhats pam rpm (currently pam-0.77-66.14) I get these errors in /var/log/messages:
Jun 21 15:55:43 fudge PAM-Wheel[30822]: pam_parse: unknown option; root_only
So I guess were screwed until redhat get their pam rpm's sorted.
Cheers,
Nick .

I came across the same problem TODAY. I thought I had done
something wrong
with the Linux load.
It is so good to hear someone else has the same problem. I
am eagerly
awaiting the solution.

Folks,are in the
I've set /etc/pam.d/su to only allow su to root when users
wheel group, with this linefrom switching
"auth required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_wheel.so use_uid"
From README.pam_wheel
"only permit root authentication to members of wheel group"
However this is preventing users NOT in the wheel group
user to anyone, not just to root.pam-0.77-65.1
I've tried this on 2 boxes with different versions of PAM:
and pam-0.77-66.13.this behaviour ?
Anyone come across this before or have an explanation for
