Yes, when I type su as user test, I get "Sorry" outputted to the console and I see "BAD SU test to root on /dev/ttyC0" in /var/log/authlog. I'm doing this locally on a laptop. When I type sudo su as user test, I get a root shell. In /etc/sudoers I have the %wheel line for no password uncommented. Brad
