Well, i can tell you that much that any patch from my hand would be shunned like a demon - while i do code, i have only done so using PHP, C# and C... In that order of preference (yes, yes, i know, PHP is made of evil and so on). On top of that - i simply thought i would make a note of it, a sort of clarification :) Not a -real- suggestion, as there are a whole bunch of things that would need to be taken into consideration (for example, if kapabilities was implemented all the way like it is in Ark Linux, the users would be disabled for login... which sort of defeats the purpose of having the ssh server running on the thing). > Btw, same conceptually, I like to call that particular rambling an > "idea" Yeah, i guess it sort of was :) From my hand, however, it is a not exactly well formed idea ;) i try and make actual ideas i give out have more, well... substance, shall we say :) i am really a more casual observer here (i have FAR too much on my plate as it is), but thought i would make a short notice of something that seemed appropriate :) > -------------------------------- > Brandon > > On Jan 10, 2008, at 4:57 PM, Dan Leinir Turthra Jensen > > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Thursday 10 January 2008 skrev Brandon Kruse: > >> Kde and gnome take that precaution with gtk based Sudo when you login > >> as a normal user (at least in debian/ubuntu) and I like that method. > > > > Not entirely...
