I received several emails from folks, but this email from Brad Morrison
is what i was looking for.
We are a sudo shop, so sudo was already installed. I just had to
modify the sudoers file with this information:
To set up user "joe" to sudo to psoft on ALL hosts, use:
Cmnd_Alias PSOFT=/usr/bin/su - psoft, /usr/bin/su psoft
joe ALL=PSOFT
Then in the /etc/shadow file, I locked out the psoft account out buy
putting in a non-valid password.
Thanks!!!
Cheers,
Jim

I have a question about preventing a user from logging in directly. I
only want to be able to su - over to it from another account. I know
that you can prevent root from logging in directly by setting up the
/dev/console setting in the /etc/default/login file, but is it
possible
to do this for a regular user?
Cheers,
Jim
