I can't quite tell what you mean:

Do you mean, "how do I let regular users who ssh in to my systems su
to root", so that Joe can become root to manage the system?  (...and,
then, how do you get Puppet to configure that for you on those
machines.)

Alternately, are you asking about how to get Puppet to connect via ssh
and use su?

I assume the former, and the answer is distribution specific: you need
to tell us what OS you are using for us to be any help.

Totally dependent on the client distro/OS. This is default behaviour
on most linux distro's that don't disable root login (RHEL/SLES etc)
is it not?
