The program molly-guard
is a brilliant little tool which will prompt you for a piece of information before you reboot or shut down a system. Usually it asks for the hostname. So when you work a lot via SSH, you won't end up taking down the wrong server, just because you were in the wrong tab or window.
Now, this works all fine when you say reboot
on the command line while you are already root
. However, it won't work if you do sudo reboot
(i.e. it won't even ask). How can I get it to work with sudo
as well?
System: Raspbian (latest, including updates), package molly-guard
version 0.4.5-1
