That would be crazy if someone imported tmux, doas, tmux, and openrsync into #FreeBSD base. Like , crazy.

I use doas on FreeBSD

@rl_dane @dexter Unfortunately it is missing some features that aren't available in FreeBSD kernel space though.

@tubsta @rl_dane @dexter yeah. I use sudo(-rs) because of the ability to remember me for longer than a single command 😅

I'm not in front of my #FreeBSD laptop right now, but I'm pretty sure doas on FreeBSD has retention. It's probably not as secure as the #OpenBSD implementation, but (heh) not much is. ;)

@rl_dane @ianthetechie @tubsta @dexter thought opendoas did whereas doas does not. The former is the OpenBSD flavour if memory serves.

They're both forks, AIUI, because the hooks to retain auth status is custom to OpenBSD.

Yes. The #OpenBSD version does not work as-is anywhere else. Basically: either one modifies the code to conditionally-compile out the OpenBSDisms and loses functionality, or one takes the OpenBSDisms out completely and replaces them with sudoisms.

#FreeBSD, #NetBSD, and #Arch Linux have both Smith's and Overbruck's versions; #Debian Linux only the latter; #SmartOS only the former.

>doas(1) concatenates all supplied arguments using strlcpy(3) and strlcat(3), the maintainer replace them with strncpy(3) and strncat(3

I thought these functions are part of the #linux libbsd package, is that not the case ? I would think if you add libbsd as a dependency that would remove a lot of "OpenBSDisms". From what I have seen on #linux, many pkgs do not care if they have lots of dependencies, what is one more small library :)

@jmcunx @JdeBP @rl_dane @EF @ianthetechie @tubsta @dexter they are, and they're also in glibc as of 2.38 a few years ago, but only because they got added to POSIX.1-2024.
