Re: [Plug] clock

[Kevin Hill <khill@quarterleaf.com>]

Sudo is a command that lets non-root users run commands which require
root permissions.  It's documented and available at:

http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/

However, if you're logged in as root, sudo is rather redundant.  Just
log in as root and you should be able to do whatever you need.
