/etc/default/su
This file contains values for the following parameters
affecting the use of the
su(1M)
command:
- SULOG
-
The pathname of a file in which you can log all attempts to execute
su.
- CONSOLE
-
If a user executes su
to become a privileged user
on a device other than device,
a message appears on device
to inform the administrator of that fact.
- PATH
-
When a user executes su
to become an unprivileged user,
the user's path is set to path_list.
The default is /usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin.
- SUPATH
-
When a user executes su
to become a privileged user,
the user's path is set to path_list.
The default is
/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/ccs/bin.
- PROMPT
-
If this parameter exists and is set to No,
the su command does not prompt for a password
(even if one is defined for the login_name).
The invoking user, however,
must still have appropriate privilege to execute
su successfully.
If this parameter does not exist
or is set to anything other than
No (including NULL),
su prompts for a password when invoked
and validates the password
(if one is defined for login_name).
