Sane SUDO configuration

To edit:

sudo visudo

Here’s mine:

# /etc/sudoers

#

# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.

#

# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.

#

Defaults	env_reset

# Host alias specification

# User alias specification

# Cmnd alias specification

# User privilege specification

root	ALL=(ALL) ALL

hendry  ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL

ALL   ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/ifup usb0, /sbin/ifdown usb0

Some people think this is stupid. I personally don’t like perms very much.
