I'm pretty sure that only root can do that sort of thing.

Subject: su'ing in a UNIX script


Hi,

I need to pass the Password to the superuser command as follows:

su - superuser_id

As is, the above when executed from the command line expects after the
string "Password:" on the next line.

I can not get root privileges.

Thanks.
Jay
