rly checks if it can only be accessed by wheel group and sets caller's uid to 0. rly replaces the most common reason for using sudo, while at the same time being much simpler, reducing the general security risk to the system. unlike sudo, rly doesn't pretend that the caller's account is any more secure than root, so there is never a need for a password. rly only escalates to root, if you want to allow user to run commands as though they were another non-root user you can use doas. rly is based on chiark-really, made by Ian Jackson <ian@chiark.greenend.org.uk>. rly is free software: you are free to change and redistribute it under the terms of the GNU GPL version 3 or any later version; see the COPYING file for details.
