I am against it. Those who do not need the warning sign already know
the message we try to send via this page and those who do need the
warning sign would better avoid NOPASSWD.

Well, there is already a warning, just that it's not in HUGE red bold font:

"sudo will ask for a password. This password is bob's password, and not
root's password, so be careful when you give rights to a user with sudo."


Maybe we could make the wording a little stronger, bold or something
just in case anyone skips over it without the significance sinking in!

It doesn't need to be vi because sudo uses $EDITOR (which defaults to
vim in CentOS5) shell variable to run Your Beloved Editor (tm) :^)

I've just mentioned it in the article.

Therefore the saving part "(press escape, then type ZZ)" can be removed.

Some Spanish translations have been done to this article. See:

I've linked to the English page from Tips and Tricks (Admin tricks and
shell one-liners section).


If no one has any more comments/additions, we can remove the draft
notice too.

I'd like to make the French translation. What's the process for
translating articles?

Nils

At the moment: Pick an article, translate that, post it here and let
that check by someone else who can read french. If that works out okay,
I'll create an fr/ tree on the wiki, give you (and others?) access to
that and then you go ahead.

But please begin with sending a page here, the guy who began with that
(and left us with wiki.centos.org/fr/Repositories) somehow vanished. >

Cheers,

Ralph
