I am seeing some disparity between (two distributions granted) CentOS 6.6 and Fedora22 in

In CentOS there is no way to script login to root... this is of course a desirable
trait.
for instance,
[ user@localhost user ]$ su root <<EOF

standard in must be a tty
However, Fedora22 allows this action... where is the file which I must edit to enable
this security setting?
{ (^-^) user /home/user } su root <<EOF

uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)
context=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
Thanks for the help in advance.
My first thought is to check for differences between /etc/pam.d/su on each OS.
