sudo multiple commands at once without shell script
How do I run multiple sudo commands at once? This fails because the semicolon ends the whole sudo command: sudo whoami; whoami root user This confuses tcsh: monica:~ sudo ( whoami ; whoami ) Badly placed ()'s. I could obviously write a shell script or something or do: sudo whoami; sudo whoami but is there a better way? -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.

This fails because the semicolon ends the whole sudo command: sudo whoami; whoami root user This confuses tcsh: monica:~ sudo ( whoami ; whoami ) Badly placed ()'s. Supposing sudo spawns a shell, something like ~ sudo whoami \; whoami or ~ sudo whoami; whoami should work. If not, maybe try explicitly running a shell: ~ sudo sh -c whoami; whoami ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
