I don't use sudo. I find it rather pointless. If I need to do something as root, I use su to gain root privileges, then when I'm done, I exit and return to the original user. The user running su must be in the group "wheel" to be able to su to root. This is a simple yet convenient security system.
su is standard, sudo is another binary to install. So I don't bother installing it. On 4/5/07, Victor Engmark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi all, I thought it would be a good idea to use sudo on my FreeBSD laptop, but I'm having doubts after checking the handbook (it's not mentioned at all) and Google (most of the articles were obscure and / or old). Are you using sudo? If not, why? -- Victor Engmark _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to " [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
