If you're working on some dozens of linux servers (or even more than 100,.. as in my case), you end up doing administration via SSH - which is the way to go. And chances are, that you'll get dozens of SSH connections open in dozens of tabs and you did some updates on some of those servers and want to restart this thing with a quick sudo reboot now...
\nI won't lie if I say, it happend more than once that I accidentally rebooted the wrong server - at least that was the case more than a year ago.
\nFor the last year, since I have been using Molly-Guard - that did not happen once. Why? Because Molly-Guard does stop the reboot command if it detects that you're issuing it from an SSH console - and asks for the server name. If you're entering it correctly - it will reboot. If you're in a frenzy, doing your \"sudo reboot now\" and enter name serverB while you're on serverA - yep, Molly-Guard will stop you from shooting yourself in the leg. Neat, ain't it?<\/p>\n
Oh - and the best part? Ease of use: sudo apt-get install molly-guard
\nThats it, you're set, bye.<\/p>\n
Nope. Really. No configuration needed. Just install that baby and be safe :)!<\/p>\n
