I have a server with Red Hat Enterprise. ok.
Iīve had a doubt with the command "sudo", I saw in the secure log this line:

Apr 16 04:30:37 server01 userhelper[14221]: pam_timestamp: updated timestamp file `/var/run/sudo/root/unknown'

I think that the "up2date" command update the system with "sudo" but I donīt know if Iīm right.
Can some one explain the line above or can tell-me if can I delete the sudo command for more security?


Thanks

Hello aeav,

You could check the configuration of the /etc/sudoers file - normally the only entry in this file at installation is 'root ALL=(ALL) ALL', which doesn't confer any privileges on non-root users, and therefore doesn't represent a security risk.
