Hi, Upon doing sudo <some-command> as a normal user (non-root), sudo asks for password only once, subsequent invocations of sudo doesn't ask for password - even though I do sudo -k or sudo -K in between. Although sudo starts asking for password after the time stamp expiry. in other words: % sudo mkdir /newdir <sudo asks for password authentication, creates the directory after successful authentication> % sudo -k % sudo -K % sudo mkdir /another_new_dir <sudo don't ask for password authentication, and creates the directory> In sudoers file, NOPASSWD is NOT set. here is my sudeors file: http://pastebin.com/WFnXCLE1 Output of "uname -a": FreeBSD foo.bar 8.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE #0: Mon Jul 19 02:55:53 UTC 2010 root@almeida.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Is this known bug? If not, then it might have security implications. Regards, Gurpreet Singh -- Life is not fair. Get used to it. .... Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.
