Sudo Insults
From http://www.bani.com.br/index.php/2007/01/17/sudo-insults/
An interesting sudo feature is the ability to insult you when you type a wrong password. It has really funny phrases, see some of them:
- I’ve seen penguins that can type better than that.
- Maybe if you used more than just two fingers
On Ubuntu, this feature comes disabled by default. To enable it, edit /etc/sudoers file with visudo and put insults in the end of line “Defaults”. That line will look like this:
Defaults !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn,insults
That’s it! Just run the sudo command and type a wrong password.
This sounds really funny. Although I can predict that there will be a sudden spike in the wrong passwords. Haha.
