Sudo runs commands as another user, provided the system sudo
|
||
|
|
implementation is setup to enable this. This does not allow running
|
||
|
|
applications securely, simply it allows the programmer to run a
|
||
|
|
program as another user (suid) using the sudo tools rather than
|
||
|
|
suidperl. Suidperl is not generally recommended for secure operation
|
||
|
|
as another user. While sudo itself is a single point tool to enable
|
||
|
|
one user to execute commands as another sudo does not itself make you
|
||
|
|
any more or less secure.
