An awesome way to sudo

[pallaswept]

Thankyou to @malcolmlewis for mentioning impending run0 adoption. This is the kind of useful feedback I had anticipated.

I haven’t tried this out yet, but the manpage gives me confidence:

• Authentication takes place via polkit

…
Any session invoked via run0 will run through the “systemd-run0” PAM stack.

Pretty sure this would ‘just work’ the way I have it already, and at worst would need something like what I wrote for su above.

I’ll read into run0 before I install it, it feels like I’d have a non-zero chance of locking out my accounts

… Wait… I already have it And yeh it just works:

OpenSUSE packagers scoring Ws again.

I use sudo a lot on many different linux machines. it is especially nice when you have to perform OS level commands on remote servers. You can ssh in (automated) as a non-root user using ssh-keys and execute a command using ‘sudo’.
