I just tested su -p and it leaves out /sbin:/usr/sbin from $PATH maybe some configuration on your machine makes su default to su -p. My su behaves exactly as stated in the man page it allows me to chown root files though. Up to date 42.2 system.
no, "-p" does not get you a login shell for root! and *noone* said it did, you brought "-p" to the table. and there has been no discussion of changing the owner of files. the recent part of the thread is about the difference between "su" and "su -". -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
