+    <para>
+      pam_rootok is a PAM module that authenticates the user if their
+      <emphasis>UID</emphasis> is <emphasis>0</emphasis>.
+      Applications that are created setuid-root generally retain the
+      <emphasis>UID</emphasis> of the user but run with the authority
+      of an enhanced effective-UID. It is the real <emphasis>UID</emphasis>
+      that is checked.

+      In the case of the <citerefentry>
+        <refentrytitle>su</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum>
+      </citerefentry> 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 <filename>/etc/pam.d/su</filename> configuration file:
+      <programlisting>
+# su authentication. Root is granted access by default.
+auth  sufficient   pam_rootok.so
