[SunHELP] RE: Reg su login

[Michael Keplinger]

if you edit the line in /etc/default/login to the
following:

CONSOLE=

Then this will disallow any login access to root. 
This will only allow you to su to root.  Then you will
get all logs to su in the sulog.
I believe that this will work even if you have root
named as a different account because solaris only
looks at the UID and not the user name.  Hope this
helps

Mike
