Hi, i recently removed the SUID bit from /bin/su. The permissions now look like this: -rwxr-x--- Now i can just type "sudo su" to become root and no password is asked. Previously i needed to type the root password when using su. As a normal user, i now cannot run su anymore which is ok for me. The permissions of sudo are: -rwsr-x---
My /etc/sudoers file looks like this: root ALL=(ALL)ALL benedict ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/find, /bin/cpio, /home/benedict/scripts/backup, /bin/echo, PASSWD: ALL The entries with NOPASSWD are because of a backup script. So why don't i need to type a password for running "sudo su". It just doesn't feel right the way it's now.
