doas (sysutils/doas) Updated: 3 months, 3 weeks ago Add to my watchlist

a utility that lets a user run a command as another user

doas allows a user to run a command as though they were another user. Typically doas is used to allow non-privileged users to run commands as though they were the root user. doas offers two benefits over sudo: its configuration file has a simple syntax and it is smaller, requiring less effort to audit the code. This makes it harder for both admins and coders to make mistakes that potentially open security holes in the system.
