@tsarstepan,
Quote:Can some IT guy explain the tech jargon in this one please?
The "sudo" command in UNIX stands for "superuser do". It prompts you for your personal password and confirms your request to execute a command by checking a file, called
sudoers, which the system administrator configures. Using the sudoers file, system administrators can give certain users or groups access to some or all commands without those users having to know the root password. It also logs all commands and arguments so there is a record of who used it for what, and when.
"su" command on the other hand lets you switch user login with another username.
So basically the guy "robm" is trying to screw system privileges by logging in as super user on UNIX and potentially acting "naughty". But because "sudoers" maintains a log of these high secuirty activities, the user is curious who uses the log of the sudoers file.
It turns out to be Santa!
