Aparrently not, I'm sorry.

Ok, so while using login instead of su is possible in some cases (it
seems windows xp is not one of them), easiest is using ssh.

Now, because ssh has a remarkably clumsy command line to be used as
su, maybe we can include or advise a script or alias like this:

   #!/bin/sh
   # su
   exec ssh $1@$(hostname)

or
   
   alias su='ssh $(hostname) -l'
   
Greetings,
Jan.
