How to “sudo sshuttle”?












-1














If running sshuttle as a non-root user, it will ask you for the sudo password of your local computer. To avoid doing that several times a day, can I keep the terminal window in sudo mode by sudo -i? Is it sudo damaged my computer?

  • What is the question? Is it "is it ok to have a interactive root shell opened in a terminal window?" or is it "will sudo damage my computer?". What do you mean by "damage my computer"? There is no "sudo mode" and the "sudo password" is your own login password (so there's nothing called a "sudo password").

  • If the problem is sudo prompting for a password, look into the NOPASSWD option. If the problem is something else, please edit your question to clarify.
