As well as the files that you create, your computer has a number
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
of files which are needed by the system for it to work properly. If these
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
important system files are changed incorrectly they can cause
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
various things to break, so they are protected from changes by default.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
Certain applications also modify important parts of the system, and so are
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
also protected.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
The way that they are protected is by only allowing users with
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
administrative privileges to change the files or use the
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
applications. In day-to-day use, you will not need to change any system files
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
or use these applications, so by default you do not have administrative
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
privileges.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
Sometimes you need to use these applications, so you may be able to
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
temporarily get administrative privileges to allow you to make the changes.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
If an application needs administrative privileges, it will ask for your
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
password. For example, if you want to install some new software, the software
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
installer (package manager) will ask for your administrator password so it
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
can add the new application to the system. Once it has finished, your
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
administrative privileges will be taken away again.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
Administrative privileges are associated with your user account.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
<gui>Administrator</gui> users are allowed to have these privileges while
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
<gui>Standard</gui> users are not. Without administrative privileges you will
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
not be able to install software. Some user accounts (for example, the “root”
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
account) have permanent administrative privileges. You should not use
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
administrative privileges all of the time, because you might accidentally
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
change something you did not intend to (like delete a needed system file, for
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
example).
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
In summary, administrative privileges allow you to change important parts
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
of your system when needed, but prevent you from doing it accidentally.

<title>What does “super user” mean?</title>
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
A user with administrative privileges is sometimes called a super
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
user. This is simply because that user has more privileges than normal
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
users. You might see people discussing things like <cmd>su</cmd> and
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
<cmd>sudo</cmd>; these are programs for temporarily giving you “super user”
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
(administrative) privileges.

<title>Why are administrative privileges useful?</title>
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
Requiring users to have administrative privileges before important system
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
changes are made is useful because it helps to prevent your system from being
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
broken, intentionally or unintentionally.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
If you had administrative privileges all of the time, you might
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
accidentally change an important file, or run an application which changes
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
something important by mistake. Only getting administrative privileges
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
temporarily, when you need them, reduces the risk of these mistakes
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
happening.
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
Only certain trusted users should be allowed to have administrative
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
privileges. This prevents other users from messing with the computer and
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
doing things like uninstalling applications that you need, installing
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
applications that you don’t want, or changing important files. This is useful
|
|
Packit |
6d2957 |
from a security standpoint.
