OpenSuse – run IFCONFIG as user


OPenSUSE 11.1 surprised me when I was denied to run IFCONFIG as a normal user and also as SUDO. There is an easy way around it, just create an alias link to the /sbin/ifconfig file.

$alias ifconfig=’/sbin/ifconfig’

Now you can run IFCONFIG with your user account.
