Ben is right about sudo. You may need to install the sudo package if you don't have it yet. (rpm -q sudo to check). You can add this line to the /etc/sudoers config file to get the 24-hour timeout: Defaults timestamp_timeout 1440 ``man sudoers'' for more details. --Steve Augart Tom Nielsen wrote:
OK, I'm sick and tired (yes, I know we all are) of putting in my password all the time to access root areas like YAST or package manager, etc...
Is there a way to do a script where I can log into everything that requires a root password at one time and have it timeout after 24 hours???
I'm an idiot, so if you can show me how without saying "write a simple bla-bla script," I would appreciate it.
