Re: restrict su to non-root users
Consider to use sudo to perform commands as root instead of su.
Hope this helps!

Re: restrict su to non-root users
Thanks for the reply, but my issue is that customer is insisting that, his normal user when used the su command to any other non-root user, it shoud give the error on that su command itself and it should not prompt for the login and the password.
But if that user does the su to root, then he should be able to get the login and password prompt.
