System name:		sonny
Type and version:	SPARC/IPX 7.5A
Display type:		Don't know how to determine display type for this machine.

What were you trying to do?
	su to root, as myself

What's wrong:
	it syslog'd this:

	SU 05/11 14:47 + pts/0 root-root

to console, but did thye right thing with /usr/adm/sulog:

	SU 05/11 14:47 + pts/0 yandros-root

What should have happened:
	The correct thing should have been syslog'd to console

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	The sysloggin on this machine is probably not what is
`standard' install, since the standard install does some things
`wrong', but it doesn't matter - nothing should syslog `root-root`
when `yandros' su's.
