sudo no longer ask for password

Hey all,

so tonight i was messing around load-module.sh to cut down on my boot time.  Now all of the sudden when I do "sudo" it no longer ask me for my password before executing the task.  I checked my sudoers list and the only task i have down that needs no password is pm-suspend.  I tried reisntalling sudo and put back the original load-module.sh but it still didn't help.  Any idea what caused this, this happened to anyone before?

Re: sudo no longer ask for password

I assume that you were using sudo regularly when editing load-modules.sh.  Sudo only asks for the password once every so many minutes.  If you repeatedly use it, then it will only ask the first time.

Or has it really stopped asking altogether?

Re: sudo no longer ask for password

ahh nevermind i just waited like 8-10 mins or so and now it does ask for my password.  I got kinda paranoid because when i rebooted and ran a sudo command  after login in it didn't ask for the password and usually it did (if i remember correctly).  So nvm, i got just paranoid and didn't have any patience to wait it out...haha.
