Template: pdsh/setuidroot
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Should the pdsh binary be installed setuid root?
The pdsh program can be installed setuid root, so that it will run with
the permissions of the 'root' user.
.
This is required for non-root accounts to use the rsh remote-command method
of pdsh. However, enabling this could be a security risk.
.
In short, unless you know what you are doing or have a very controlled
user base, you should not enable this feature. If you choose not to enable
setuid root, then you can still use pdsh through tools like sudo or with
the ssh remote-command module.
