Here's what I can do:
ssh to another machine, run X programs from my account
ssh to another machine
su on that machine to root, run X programs from root account
Here's what I can't do:
ssh to another machine
su on that machine to root
su from root on that machine to another user on that machine,
and run X programs from that user's account.
Does anyone know how to change identities twice while still transferring
X permissions? I've been using a wrapper around su called sux. Is
there some other tool I should use?
