See if you have a group named wheel. If not, create it. If you have
the shadow password suite (this is standard on Slackware but may not
be on RedHat): 'groupadd wheel'. Otherwise, simply edit /etc/group.
(The name 'wheel' is arbitrary but standard. You could use any
name.)
Add userids to the wheel group. If you have shadow, use 'usermod -G
wheel <userid>'. If not, edit /etc/group.
# chown root.wheel su; chmod o-x su; chmod u+s su

You are presumably talking about a PAM-ified su. Linux may have the
su from GNU sh-utils or the su from the shadow password suite.
Neither of those (AFAIK) supports specifying a list of accounts that
each user can su to.
