Do you guys have any clue, how's that possible, usually

Hi all..
I'm secering a RH 2.1 server, with gnome (not my choice...), as X manager.
Is ther anyway to get sudo ask for root password other then the actual user's password? Like when you launch the graphical IHM to create a new user, it asks for root's password? Is there a way to do the same... (5 Replies)

After this I logged in with 'sudo -s' and typed the command without 'sudo'. This worked well.
Can please somebody explain me this... (0 Replies)

The only to achieve this is to... (1 Reply)

Hello,
It is Solaris-10. There is a file as /opt/vpp/dom1.2/pdd/today_23. It is always generated by root, so owned by root only.
This file has to be deleted as part of application restart always and that is done by app_user and SA is always involved to do rm on that file.
Is it possible to give... (9 Replies)
I have a coworker that has set up some funky aliases in /etc/bash.alias, and he insists on leaving them that way. For example he aliased "ll" to "ls -lahtr", which really bugs me.
Anyway, I was wondering if there were a way for me to sudo to root without reading /etc/bash.alias, or maybe have... (6 Replies)

PUPPET-DOC(8) Puppet manual PUPPET-DOC(8)NAME
puppet-doc - Generate Puppet documentation and references
SYNOPSIS
Generates a reference for all Puppet types. Largely meant for internal Puppet Labs use.
USAGE
puppet doc [-a|--all] [-h|--help] [-o|--outputdir rdoc-outputdir] [-m|--mode text|pdf|rdoc] [-r|--reference reference-name] [--charset
charset] [manifest-file]
DESCRIPTION
If mode is not 'rdoc', then this command generates a Markdown document describing all installed Puppet types or all allowable arguments to
puppet executables. It is largely meant for internal use and is used to generate the reference document available on the Puppet Labs web
site.
In 'rdoc' mode, this command generates an html RDoc hierarchy describing the manifests that are in 'manifestdir' and 'modulepath' configu-
ration directives. The generated documentation directory is doc by default but can be changed with the 'outputdir' option.
If the command is run with the name of a manifest file as an argument, puppet doc will output a single manifest's documentation on stdout.
OPTIONS --all Output the docs for all of the reference types. In 'rdoc' mode, this also outputs documentation for all resources.
--help Print this help message
--outputdir
Used only in 'rdoc' mode. The directory to which the rdoc output should be written.
--mode Determine the output mode. Valid modes are 'text', 'pdf' and 'rdoc'. The 'pdf' mode creates PDF formatted files in the /tmp direc-
tory. The default mode is 'text'. In 'rdoc' mode you must provide 'manifests-path'
--reference
Build a particular reference. Get a list of references by running 'puppet doc --list'.
--charset
Used only in 'rdoc' mode. It sets the charset used in the html files produced.
--manifestdir
Used only in 'rdoc' mode. The directory to scan for stand-alone manifests. If not supplied, puppet doc will use the manifestdir from
puppet.conf.
--modulepath
Used only in 'rdoc' mode. The directory or directories to scan for modules. If not supplied, puppet doc will use the modulepath from
puppet.conf.
--environment
Used only in 'rdoc' mode. The configuration environment from which to read the modulepath and manifestdir settings, when reading
said settings from puppet.conf. Due to a known bug, this option is not currently effective.
EXAMPLE
$ puppet doc -r type > /tmp/type_reference.markdown
or
$ puppet doc --outputdir /tmp/rdoc --mode rdoc /path/to/manifests
or
$ puppet doc /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
or
$ puppet doc -m pdf -r configuration
