In Response To: RE: I have a puzzling situation (jim-cramer@uiowa.edu)
I have loosely followed this tread so this may not apply. When you test
as each user are you doing su <testuser> from your normal user login or
do you su to root first? I ran into a problem years ago. If I su to root
then su to testuser it acted differently than if I su to testuser directly.
