Thanks god for that! I mean that is the essence of the gnu sec!
Doing administrative tasks with sudo is not a problem at all as long as you
know what you are doing.
Never login as root and never use the root (there's a reason why root is not
enabled) and give your user the least privileges it needs for its computing.
The less privileges the better!
This is the main reason why gnu has had some 40 malwares (
none of it in the wild and almost all designed just for
educational/theoretical reasons) and windblowz which gives the normal user
God power has had what? 82734982378935729 ?!
p.s - good passwords are necessary (necessary as in FUNDAMENTAL) - make that
password very hard to guess or crack!! and make it complex and long - a psswd
long 16 characters is much much harder to crack then one with 8 characters.
The difference is the short one, if it is not very complex, can be cracked
is hours while the long and complex one can take months! or never get cracked
at all..
