The command "sudo sa --print-users" is used to list all the users on a system that have been granted Superuser (sudo) privileges. Here is a breakdown of each part:
-
"sudo" stands for "superuser do". It is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to provide elevated privileges to users. By using "sudo" at the beginning of a command, the user can execute that command with administrative rights.
-
"sa" is an abbreviation for "system administrator". It refers to the system administrator tool that helps manage user accounts, groups, and other system-related settings.
-
"--print-users" is an option or flag provided to the "sa" tool. This specific flag instructs the tool to print a list of all users who have been granted sudo privileges, typically displaying their usernames.
Combining these elements, the command "sudo sa --print-users" will execute the "sa" tool with administrative privileges and display a list of users who have been granted sudo access on the system.
