All, I am starting this thread because I don't understand why people are using sudo and su together. They are completely separate utilities that do the same thing. AFAIK, it should be either "sudo -i" or "su -", but not "sudo su -" which I have seen quite often. "sudo su -" is redundant because "su -" does the same thing as "sudo -i".
"sudo -s", afaik, gives you a root shell but does not clear out the environment first. Am I completely missing something? William
