[13:37] <ztane> on a server machine with a failed /dev/sda; I am trying to figure out what is *writing to it* as reported by atop, because it is slowing the IO considerably; it was part of SWRAID /dev/md0 but I've failed and removed it from the array...
[13:37] <ztane> focal, up to date...
[13:43] <ztane> nvm, id10t error
[13:46] <ztane> turns out it was part of a raid0 array. fun times.
[16:27] <Kilroy> is there a way to prevent sudo -s
[16:27] <Kilroy> with out preventing sudo
[16:31] <andol> Kilroy: Well, you can always write more specific sudoers rules, but technically that will do more than just preventing sudo -s.
[16:33] <andol> Kilroy: What problem is you really trying to solve? Preventing the user from having unrestriced sudo/root access? Preventing the user from getting an interactive root shell?
[16:33] <Kilroy> trying to prevent the interactive root shell
[16:36] <andol> Yeah, that's not really realistic, unless you also very explicitly limit what commands the user is allowed to execute as root.
[22:40] <foo> coke: thanks, I guess a VPN would just need a VPN client. 
[22:41] <foo> tomreyn: Open to a VPN, I thought that was "more involved" - it's less important to access a local network, more important to have a specific IP address. Thanks for chiming in
