Re: [Fish-users] sudo vs fish - have to re-enter password

2011-10-26 Thread Jan Kanis
I've done some testing, the problem was introduced with sudo revision
f9aec9ab9054, but the changes from revision 8649bf22b3b2 are needed to get
sudo to build. Sources from www.sudo.ws. This is the description of the
changeset:

Store info from stat(2)ing the tty in the tty ticket when tty tickets
 are in use.  If the tty lives on a devpts (Linux) or devices (Solaris)
 filesystem, stash the ctime in the tty ticket file, as it is not
 updated when the tty is written to.  This helps us determine when
 a tty has been reused without the user authenticating again with
 sudo.


Anyone who knows about devpts/tty's etc interested in also having a look?

 install with sudo 1.7.2 this problem does not exist. On 11.04 with bash it's
 not a problem. Conclusion: there is a bug in the way fish and sudo interact.
 Anyone has any idea how this could happen?

Re: [Fish-users] sudo vs fish - have to re-enter password

2011-03-07 Thread Jan Kanis
Check that fish and bash are both actually calling the sudo command
directly, i.e. that there are not any functions/aliases for sudo. If both
are calling the command directly, my guess is that it must be something with
environment variables. See if there are any exported ones in bash/fish that
look relevant, else try duplicating the entire environment that one shell
uses to the other when calling sudo. AFAIK these are the only real ways in
which the specific shell could influence how a command executes.

  I have to say that this has not been my experience. I am not using the
  latest fish however; I'm using the default version in the Ubunto
 repository.
  I have had no problems using sudo; it properly remembers and uses my
  password timeout.

  Hello, I have a problem with sudo vs fish
 
  when I use sudo, it asks me to enter password repeatedly, even thou I
  have sudo timeout set to 15 minutes.
  sudo works correctly under bash
 
  look at the following example:
 
  z@pc /t/zTemp  ls
  a/  b/
  z@pc /t/zTemp  sudo ls
  [sudo] password for z:
  a  b
  z@pc /t/zTemp  sudo ls
  [sudo] password for z:
  a  b
  z@pc /t/zTemp  bash
  z@pc /tmp/zTemp $ sudo ls
  [sudo] password for z:
  a  b
  z@pc /tmp/zTemp $ sudo ls
  a  b
 
  fish, version 1.23.1
 
  Any clues?
  thx
