When I first started doing tech support for an ISP, back in '96, we had telnet access to one server to make various database queries for callers. Instead of giving us direct access to the databases, we had shell scripts that used sudo. I could always tell when they'd rebooted the server because sudo would give me that standard lecture. IMO, that's what sudo was designed for, giving users limited access to specific commands that they need to do their job. Using it on your home box for root access is, IMAO, a bad habit that I'm not going to eliminate, although I can, and do object to people spreading it. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
