Getting back to the original question, I use sudo every day, and have
for at least 20 years....I've heard of some alternatives, but never
come across one in use. The idea that sudo is old hat, is sort of the
point, if you ask me. I want it because it's old and stodgy and
simple and effective, and it's *everywhere* on Unix/Linux platforms!
Also, when is the last time you heard anout a security hole in sudo?
Just my thoughts.....
I concur wholeheartedly. I don't need any alternatives to sudo, but if
the user wants them, there are some. I not motivated enough to do
research. I have much more sensible work to do than to test something
that nobody uses.
