-pam_rootok — Gain only root access
-
-━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
-
-DESCRIPTION
-
-pam_rootok is a PAM module that authenticates the user if their UID is 0.
-Applications that are created setuid-root generally retain the UID of the user
-but run with the authority of an enhanced effective-UID. It is the real UID
-that is checked.
-
-OPTIONS
-
-debug
-
- Print debug information.
-
-EXAMPLES
-
-In the case of the su(1) application the historical usage is to permit the
-superuser to adopt the identity of a lesser user without the use of a password.
-To obtain this behavior with PAM the following pair of lines are needed for the
-corresponding entry in the /etc/pam.d/su configuration file:
-
-# su authentication. Root is granted access by default.
-auth sufficient pam_rootok.so
-auth required pam_unix.so
-
-
-AUTHOR
-
-pam_rootok was written by Andrew G. Morgan, <morgan@kernel.org>.
