Subject: Re: sudo:: method in tramp possible security issue
Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2018 13:14:59 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87198cbf-4e47-b094-8a06-7406114e86db@cs.ucla.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <CALDnm51BJJiRfMgK+cKp=0wHBqZh7gKUffAR-m4yfStX+aoJ-g@mail.gmail.com>
Is there a simple way to configure Emacs so that it does not use this
sudo (or sudoedit) feature of Tramp? If not, perhaps there should be one.
I long ago put (setq tramp-mode nil) into my ~/.emacs file because of
security concerns, so I wouldn't need to selectively disable sudo
myself. But perhaps others who are less concerned about security (but
still somewhat concerned) might want it.
Come to think of it, if 'emacs -Q' enables Tramp by default then perhaps
I should stop using 'emacs -Q'....
