Thank you!!!

He is saying he wants it to replace su
I do not care what they do with sudo as long as su does not get touched.
And if it is a default in the base system a must would be to leave the ALL
line commented out in the sudoers file. So people who do not want their
users to have access to sudo are not stuck with it being a default.

Uhh you people realize sudo is COMPLEMENTARY to su? All my Linux and OpenBSD

systems (wait for it.....) have _both_ installed by default. Crazy huh? Some

example commands:

sudo ifconfig blah [enters own password]
sudo su - [enters own password]
sudo sendmail -q [enters own password]
su - [enters root password]

Whoa! what's #2? And what's #4? Holy cow!

Folks, this is by far the stupidest argument/discussion I have ever seen on 
a security related mailing list (and I've been on BugTraq and 
Full-Disclosure for a long time so that's saying something). sudo is 
complementary to su, you can have both, and sudo has 0, repeat 0 (just to 
make sure) I repeat _0_ impact on su. It does not replace su. It does not 
change su's behavior. It does not break su. You can still use su as before, 
your script will work as expected (I promise).
