That's an interesting idea. sudo pre-rm could say, "please set a root password and retry" or something. I took from OP saying about "who remembers root password?" that they did have a root password set though, in which case this wouldn't help of course. (Whole other conversation here about having a root password set that you don't record somewhere also being questionable practice!) Thanks, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
