Hi,
I downloaded today the new version of knoppix because I had to re-install everything anyway and I do not succeed at loggin in as another user. It automatically goes into knoppix, even though I changed the comfiguration files from the kde interface.
Another question is... how can I restringe the privileges of user knoppix? In the /etc/sudoers file I found this:
# KNOPPIX WARNING: This allows the unprivileged knoppix user to start commands as root
# KNOPPIX WARNING: This is totally insecure and (almost) makes knoppix a second root account.
# KNOPPIX WARNING: Never allow external access to the knoppix user!!!
knoppix ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
Please tell me how to change this. My real goal is to employ another user and delete the knoppix one. Do you have any advice?
thanks,
Pau
