--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-431 2005-06-17 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : sudo Version : 1.6.8p8 Release : 2.1 Summary : Allows restricted root access for specified users. Description : Sudo (superuser do) allows a system administrator to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root while logging all commands and arguments. Sudo operates on a per-command basis. It is not a replacement for the shell. Features include: the ability to restrict what commands a user may run on a per-host basis, copious logging of each command (providing a clear audit trail of who did what), a configurable timeout of the sudo command, and the ability to use the same configuration file (sudoers) on many different machines. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Tue May 24 2005 Karel Zak <kzak@xxxxxxxxxx> 1.6.8p8-2.1 - fix #154511 â?? sudo does not use limits.conf --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/4/ b9d269169576051bd832c5f53c9a08e9 SRPMS/sudo-1.6.8p8-2.1.src.rpm 681c5e4d2bbd76505377eca0dc038419 ppc/sudo-1.6.8p8-2.1.ppc.rpm 1f53f7c30f50638f65b2e20ed5453f1a ppc/debug/sudo-debuginfo-1.6.8p8-2.1.ppc.rpm ead609b42c48175dbe90df54035dc15a x86_64/sudo-1.6.8p8-2.1.x86_64.rpm 47abe82718f984368454e4cb00f0a220 x86_64/debug/sudo-debuginfo-1.6.8p8-2.1.x86_64.rpm b507c2792145ec9535757d756946d9b3 i386/sudo-1.6.8p8-2.1.i386.rpm cd23eb8ed7af5ca47e3b47b40c613001 i386/debug/sudo-debuginfo-1.6.8p8-2.1.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
