Where are sudo insults stored on macOS?
If you run sudo strings /usr/bin/sudo
you get (among a lot of other things)
Sudo version %s
1.8.17p1
Configure options: %s
--with-password-timeout=0 --disable-setreuid --with-env-editor --with-pam
--with-libraries=bsm --with-noexec=no --sysconfdir=/private/etc
--without-lecture --enable-static-sudoers --with-rundir=/var/db/sudo
For insults to be included, --with-insults
(or any of the other insult options mentioned in the INSTALL file) would need to be used when compiling sudo
:
--with-insults
Define this if you want to be insulted for typing an incorrect password
just like the original sudo(8). This is off by default.
Sudoers option: insults
See How do I install sudo insults on Mac? for instructions on how to compile it yourself.
