This ^^^ is the problem. The -S switch is for system calls. To see a
list of system calls you can run "ausyscall --dump". Su is a
program and not a syscall. So, you would place a watch on it like this:

-a always,exit -F path=/usr/bin/su -F perm=x -F auid>=200 -F
auid!=4294967295 -F key=su-execution
