| I wrote
sudoscript in response to a problem I faced at a new job. Engineers there
did without support from the Unix group because they wanted to retain
the root password. I wrote up this experience in a paper published in
the August 2002 issue of ;login,
the Magazine of USENIX and SAGE. I called it "The Problem
of PORCMOLSULB: Can Root be Controlled in Engineering Environments?"
I think the paper is useful for Systems Administrators considering the
use of sudoscript in their environments. It's available here in HTML
and PDF formats. (If you are into that sort
of thing, you can also grab the XML source,
the egbokdoc DTD, and the HTML
and PDF XSL stylesheets.)
