When I try to run 'su' it does not run and returns a message: su: Sorry. and returns to the shell prompt... I guess it is 'cos some kind of permission... just read the 'su' manpage and it tells about a /etc/pam.conf but the file is not present... should I create it by hand? or there is an utility to add users or something like? Thanx!
