This guide to Grub2 password protection references the fix in post #11. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Passwords#Superuser_.26_Password_Designation_.28Required.29
~~~~ set superusers="root" export superusers password_pbkdf2 root ... ~~~~ However, in their example, instead of placing "export superusers" immediately after "set superusers", they place it after the "password/password_pbkdf2" line. set superusers="John" password John foo export superusers I'm using the latter on Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS x86_64 just because it's from a more official source, but I'm thinking it might be better from a security perspective to follow post #11 and export superusers immediately after its been defined. Can anyone provide any insight into what would be best practice here? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/718670 Title: authorisation not applied to submenus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/718670/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
