It's designed, AIUI, for people who *don't have* the root password to have *limited access* to specific root commands. It can also be used (as I described in a different message) to allow people *limited access* to programs that they'd not normally be able to run. If you have the password, there's no reason that I can see to pretend you don't. In fact, in Fedora, you can't even set sudo up so that you can use it without using the *root password!* -- 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
