People should learn the difference between regular commands and special commands. you can have sudo ask for a password or not. Ubuntu uses a sudo-like thing. Users should be asked to do an extra step for commands that are not 'normal' for a reason. the idea like 'think twice, type one' is good for such commands. -Kev -- counter.li.org #238656 -- goto counter.li.org and be counted!
