Good grief. For those paying attention, tools like sudo and the concepts behind them have been around for a really long time. Long enough that I can barely remember working on them, though I agree with this article that I did and it did in fact occur many years before Microsoft’s “invention” of this technology. Microsoft, apparently, doesn’t remember or chooses not to. Read the Groklaw article on this topic for the gory details.
