Re: [Jailkit-users] is it possible to "sudo su - user" to a jailkit user?

[Olivier Sessink]

that is probably because the jk_chrootsh code is very strict and abort
on anything that could be the start of hacking. su does a funny thing
when calling the shell. su <> -c <> is explicitly enabled in the code
(earlier versions aborted on su -c too).
