Hi, I'm logged in as root on RHEL 5.3. &nbsp;I'm trying to su as an oracle user as follows:<br />
[root@hostname]# su - oracle<br />
without entering password I get the following:<br />

I still get to the oracle account, but why do I get the error. &nbsp;<br />

A Linux distribution is an operating system made as a software collection based on the Linux kernel and, often, on a package management system and are available for a variety of systems. A typical Linux distribution comprises a Linux kernel, GNU tools and libraries, additional software, documentation, a window system (the most common being the X Window System), a window manager, and a desktop environment. Most Linux systems are open-source software made available both as compiled binaries and in source code form, allowing modifications to the original software. Over three hundred distributions are in active development, including commercially backed distributions (such as Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu) and community-driven distributions (such as Debian, Slackware, Gentoo and Arch Linux).
