from su.c: /* su for GNU. Run a shell with substitute user and group IDs. Copyright (C) 92, 93, 94, 95, 1996 Free Software Foundation, Inc. etc Compile-time options: -DSYSLOG_SUCCESS Log successful su's (by default, to root) with syslog. -DSYSLOG_FAILURE Log failed su's (by default, to root) with syslog. -DSYSLOG_NON_ROOT Log all su's, not just those to root (UID 0). Never logs attempted su's to nonexistent accounts. */ After you run ./configre from the shellutils-1... directory, cd to src and edit the makefile there. Go to the sule to make su (it starts with su: ) and edit the command below to add whatever flags you want. ie gcc blah blah becomes gcc -DSTUFF blah blah then run 'make su' in the src directory. then tune 'strip su' then cp the su program somewhere, and chmod it to 4555 Carl
