On a server I have a public key auth only for root account. Is there any point of logging in with a different account?
minus-squareoshulinkfedilink9•8 days agoI never login with the root account. Not even on the console. You don’t want everything you do running as root unless it is required. Otherwise it is much easier for a little mistake to become a big mess.
