That fixed it!!!!!
'su' no longer takes 20 seconds to complete!
The root shell still has XAUTHORITY set to /root/.xauthABCD, but commands
(like seaudit, up2date) now work.
Thanks for the speedy response! tom

Running off of the development tree, I couldn't get graphical apps (like up2date, seaudit, ...) working when su'ed as root. All of this works fine on a 'stock FC2' machine (running off

Try moving the 'pam_selinux.so open multiple' line before the 'pam_xauth.so' line in /etc/pam.d/su. Dan, this is necessary under the current policy to get xauth to run with the right permissions for the new domain.
