Dear managers,

When I login as root on console, then su to other users, there is no password prompt. But when I login as non-root and su to root(which is the more secure way for remote root login), then if I try to su to other users, I get the password prompt ! This may be good but sometimes it's just too annoying especial when I want to test something new before publishing to all users. How can I disable the feature?

I'm using Tru64 5.1 rev 732

Thanks,

Alan Voker
