This is the policy I want
♲ @Michael W Lucas (mwlauthor@twitter.com): When do you allow users to SSH in as root? #sysadmin
My answer is "never." I'm interested in your reasons. #ssh2e
-
I'm logging in as root on my server, but I would never let one of my users do it themselves.
-
But do you give some users 'sudo' privileges? If so, what's to stop them from running 'sudo -i' for all their sessions? #IDoThat
-
@bobjonkman Honestly, I allow root logins on nothing, and minimize password logins. I sudo su - when needed - but I try to do things
The big problem is when I change my password with "sudo passwd" because I am used to running everything with sudo
-
@bobjonkman @Hypolite Petovan @mwlauthor also! Remember to do sudo for most users properly, not "all permissions everywhere"
