We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others. #2) Think before you type. #3) With great power comes great responsibility.Password:
[test00@halifax ~]$ logout [root@halifax ~]# su - test00 [test00@halifax ~]$ logout [root@halifax ~]#
At this test procedure I just hit the enter key at the password promt.
Do you have any idea for this behavoir? I expect to do so from root to any account _without_ being prompted for the password.
Have you tried just running su without the dash and space before the username? (For example: su test00). If not try that and let us know if you receive the same result.
Same result:
[root@halifax ~]# su test00
Password:
[test00@halifax root]$ exit [root@halifax ~]#
