https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=293535 Bug ID: 293535 Summary: mdo(1) not documented at all while doas(1) or sudo(8) are Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Books & Articles Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: vermaden@interia.pl Hi, FreeBSD has a native mdo(1) tool with macdo(4) module to do mostly the same as doas(1) or sudo(8) offers. Yet doas(1) and sudo(8) are documented on FreeBSD Handbook and mdo(1) is not. - https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/security/#security-sudo - https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/security/#security-doas I just wrote an article that also covers mdo(1) here: - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2026/03/01/uplift-privileges-on-freebsd/ Its FreeBSD licensed - pick anything you like from it to fill the FreeBSD Handbook with needed mdo(1) information. Thanks, vermaden -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
