Stupid is a terrible word and ought not be used on a Public List. That
attitude will force moderation and who wants to be that girl or guy.

Go back to the original post before you resort to such childish adjectives.
I agree, optimizing your commands to suit only the situation in which it
will be exectued, is a great practice.

snip>>
to allow root to your xsession try typing the following command as you
 xhost +
this will grant anyone from anywhere acess to your xsession
<<snip

But when, members post to there list I don't think that they should have to
go through all the motions in every step. Instead of saying:

LOGIN:you
PASSWD: your passwd
your at yourhost$ sudo
PASSWD: your passwd
root at yourhost# for files in `/bin/ls --color=none /etc | grep ^make.conf$`;
do cp $files $files`date +%m%d`.bak && vim $files;
done

I will just say the edit the make.conf file
Security and practice are a matter of preference, I'm just trying to help.

It's a pointer, not a solution. Besides, who runs without a dedicated Linux
Based firewall running some IP Tables telling anyone trying to connect to
your Xserver or any port that doesn't deal with time mail.
