I have the user "tech" added to my system. I want that user (tech) to be able to use sudo, but for only *one* command. ssh. I also want this to utilize the "NOPASSWD" feature.
What's the line I need to add to /etc/sudoers to allow only SSH (and sudo with the no password).
Which do you use primarily and why?
Personally I try to use sudo as much as possible, but as often as I'm moving around the file system it gets a little rough sometimes and I have to use su.
i have a cent os 5 box with directadmin on id like the user apache to be able to run iptables or apf but every time i allow apache to run the command its fine untill you have to add the extra command to tell it to drop then it just comes up with permissions denied
can any one help me with this please?
i've tryed
apache ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /sbin/iptables
apache ALL=(ALL) ALL
and it still wont let me use apache to write to the deny rules list

today i changed the password for the admin panel for a customer (username eg. mylogin). 10 minutes later he called me and said that he cannot get into his emailaccount anymore. Checked the password and saw that the emailpassword for his emailaddress (eg. mylogin@mydomain.com) is now the same from the admin panel login. So i changed the emailpassword and checked the admin panel login - it now has the emailpassword. What a mess.. I'm running Plesk Panel 11.5.30 MU47.

Sometimes when you upload to ftp, the password window keeps appearing.
You type in the correct password, and then it keeps appearing and appearing as you upload files.
Why is that?
Is it my fault or hosting's fault.

I am wanting to setup rsync to always login, so I don't want to use keys. Is it possible to put the password in the rsync command leave.
If so how do I do this?
Or do I have to use: --password-file=/path/to/password/file

then run command

But it still asks for the password. How can I fix it?
