[paramiko] su: must be run from a terminal

[Eri Ramos Bastos]

Thank you, Sergio.

Unfortunately I don't have (nor can have) sudo running on the servers
where I need to run that.
I must use a pure and simple "su".

This code is part of a larger script I'm using to migrate users from a
legacy environment to a new one, with proper tools like sudo
installed.

Thanks, anyway.
