I'm looking into setting up sudo on my latest test box (stage3/genkernel
2.6.12-r9)

In portage, sudo says "Allows users or groups to run commands as other
users".  The latest stable shows 1.6.8_p9 (although the one before is it
unstable, and the one before that is stable) hmm.

Anyway, the use flags show "pam skey offensive ldap"

Pam, I get. offensive and ldap - probably won't use these.  But skey.

skey says it's a "Linux Port of OpenBSD Single-key Password System"  That's
all the info I've been able to find out so far.

The connecting page is a Solaris page that doesn't exist.  I'm trying to
find out exactly what this means, since it's a recommended piece from the
Gentoo security handbook.

 

Any input as always is greatly appreciated.

 

John D
