> I'm going to reopen this -- it is getting to be the end of March 2008,
and both the latest Update.1 and the latest Joyride STILL exhibit the
behavior ("not asking for a password") which caused me to write this
ticket.
The existing behavior is an appropriate default. I can see two options for
you.
Good: Edit /etc/pam.d/su and be happy.
Better: Contribute an SE Linux policy that implements Bitfrost, allowing
the abuse of UID to be discontinued. (hint: you need to create rules on-
the-fly for new activities)
