sudo
Sign in to saveAlso known as super user do, substitute user do
'''''' ( or ) is a shell command on Unix-like operating systems that enables a user to run a program with the security privileges of another user, by default the superuser. It originally stood for "superuser do", as that was all it did, and this remains its most common usage; however, the official Sudo project page lists it as "su 'do. The current Linux manual pages define as "substitute user", making the modern meaning of "substitute user, do", because can run a command as other users as well.

Het sudo-commando is een programma voor op UNIX gebaseerde besturingssystemen dat gebruikers in staat stelt om programma's uit te voeren met speciale privileges, meestal met rootrechten. Het is de afkorting van super user do. Het programma werd oorspronkelijk geschreven door Bob Coggeshall en Cliff Spencer "rond 1980" op de "Department of Computer Science" op SUNY/Buffalo. De huidige versie wordt actief ontwikkeld en wordt beheerd door OpenBSD-ontwikkelaar Todd C Miller en wordt uitgegeven onder de ISC-licentie, een BSD-achtige licentie.
