Hi all,
        my original question was about the possibility to run 'su' from
starting rc scripts (in /sbin/rcn.d/) in C2 security mode.

This problem looks like well-known. There are two possible solutions:

1) install the patch OSFV32-056 (fix in libsecurity.so)
2) use 'runas' (from ftp.cs.odu.edu) and replace 'su' with 'runas'

I don't tryed any possibility yet, but i believe, both work fine.

Thank for all replies!

Regards,
        Lubos
