Sudo operates on a per-command basis. It is not a replacement for the shell. Features include: the ability to restrict what commands a user may run on a per-host basis, copious logging of each command (providing a clear audit trail of who did what), a configurable timeout of the sudo command, and the ability to use the same configuration file (sudoers) on many different machines. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: - update to 1.8.6p7 - fixes CVE-2013-1775 and CVE-2013-1776 - fixed several packaging issues (thanks to [email protected]) - build with system zlib. - let rpmbuild strip libexecdir/*.so. - own the %%{_docdir}/sudo-* dir. - fix some rpmlint warnings (spaces vs tabs, unescaped macros). - fix bogus %%changelog dates. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Feb 28 2013 Daniel Kopecek |
