Sudo is used by millions of Linux/Unix users to run commands as root or another privileged user, but most people are not familiar with all Sudo can do. Sudo Project Maintainer Todd Miller and Open Source Evangelist Peter Czanik will talk about the new feature in the next major release of Sudo, version 1.9. We will highlight changes to the Sudo Plugin interface, showcase the new centralized session recording functionality, and demo some simple Sudo plugins written in Python.

What you will learn:
- Sudo 1.8 plugin architecture, and how it has changed in version 1.9
- How you can use plugins written in Python to extend sudo.  
- Sudo’s keystroke logging and the new centralized logging server that comes with version 1.9.

This meetup is for you if you use Sudo in an enterprise setting or if you are interested in learning about all the things Sudo can do that you may not be aware of.
