I heartily agree; what I am looking at is the difference between: a) it is possible to type "sudo rm -rf /" b) making rm default to a path of "/" and default -r -f options ON, and include it in sudoers by default. Obviously B is an awful idea, whether it's done by the tool or by the distribution. If I was the author of rm, and I saw a distribution do such a thing, I'd recoil in horror and go find a way to make it harder to use my tool badly, while also begging any distro doing that to please stop. -- Kyle Cordes http://kylecordes.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
