+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpam_rootok\&.so\fR\ 'u
+\fBpam_rootok\&.so\fR [debug]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pam_rootok is a PAM module that authenticates the user if their
+\fIUID\fR
+is
+\fI0\fR\&. Applications that are created setuid\-root generally retain the
+\fIUID\fR
+of the user but run with the authority of an enhanced effective\-UID\&. It is the real
+\fIUID\fR
+that is checked\&.

+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+In the case of the
+\fBsu\fR(1)
+application the historical usage is to permit the superuser to adopt the identity of a lesser user without the use of a password\&. To obtain this behavior with PAM the following pair of lines are needed for the corresponding entry in the
+/etc/pam\&.d/su
+configuration file:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+# su authentication\&. Root is granted access by default\&.
+auth  sufficient   pam_rootok\&.so
+auth  required     pam_unix\&.so
