Login As Yourself

[Dante Ranada]

I'm trying to find a way to force certain users to log in as themselves first then switch to another user, which is part of a group in /etc/group. Any ideas???

You mean like prevent DBAs from logging straight in as oracle, they must log in as themselves and then su ?

Hi
Do this users use a terminal session or CDE. A very simple solution when using a terminal session is to put a "su" command last in the .login file. I am not sure if this will satisfy your needs but I don't understand why you want to do this.

Since we are (SA's) responsible for overseeing the servers, By not logging in as themselves, we cannot place accountability and responsibility for our users. They use both CDE and terminal.

Thanks,
