Configuring su on Red Hat Linux 4.0 does not work with RSA Authentication Agent for PAM
Resolution
The su file in etc/pam.d is configured for SecurID authentication. When the user types su as a regular user, they are prompted with Passcode prompt. When the passcode is provided, authentication works fine, and the user gets one strange prompt and one privileged user prompt, but does not get the privileged user's environment.
