<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Richard Couture at 14/12/12 01:10 did gyre and gimble:
><i> While teaching a class in administration of GNU Linux using Mageia I
</I>><i> noted that when setting ENABLE_PAM_WHEEL_FOR_SU in msec that neither the
</I>><i> group nor the permissions of the exec su were changed.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">rrc at pwyr</A> ~]$ ls -al $( which su )
</I>><i> -rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 34904 Jun 9 2012 /bin/su*
</I>><i>
</I>><i> to my way of thinking, this option should change su as follows
</I>><i> -rwsr-xr-- 1 root wheel 34904 Dec 12 2012 /bin/su*
</I>
So this would prevent user A su'ing to user B. I'm not sure that's
desired behaviour.
e.g. I quite often do "su - test" to become my test user.
The setting AFAIU only prevents users su'ing to root when not in the
wheel group, not su'ing to other users.
