<h3 id="ctrl-c-behavior"><a class="header" href="#ctrl-c-behavior">CTRL-C Behavior</a></h3>
|
||
<p><strong>IMPORTANT</strong>: Pressing CTRL-C at the sudo password prompt will interrupt the entire operation due to how Unix signals work. This is <strong>expected behavior</strong> and cannot be caught by Nushell.</p>
|
||
<p>When you press CTRL-C at the password prompt:</p>
|
||
<pre><code>Password: [CTRL-C]
|
||
|
||
Error: nu::shell::error
|
||
× Operation interrupted
|
||
</code></pre>
|
||
<p><strong>Why this happens</strong>: SIGINT (CTRL-C) is sent to the entire process group, including Nushell itself. The signal propagates before exit code handling can occur.</p>

<h3 id="graceful-handling-non-ctrl-c-cancellation"><a class="header" href="#graceful-handling-non-ctrl-c-cancellation">Graceful Handling (Non-CTRL-C Cancellation)</a></h3>

<p><strong>No password provided</strong> (just press Enter):</p>
|
||
<pre><code>Password: [Enter]
|
||
|
||
⚠ Operation cancelled - sudo password required but not provided
|
||
ℹ Run 'sudo -v' first to cache credentials, or run without --fix-local-hosts

<p><strong>Wrong password 3 times</strong>:</p>

<p>When enabled:</p>

<ol>
|

<li>Removes old hostname entries from <code>/etc/hosts</code></li>
|

|

<li>Adds SSH config entry to <code>~/.ssh/config</code></li>
|

<li>Removes old SSH host keys for the hostname</li>

<ul>

<li>You manually manage <code>/etc/hosts</code> entries</li>

<h2 id="security-note"><a class="header" href="#security-note">Security Note</a></h2>
|

<p>The provisioning tool <strong>never</strong> stores or caches your sudo password. It only:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Checks if sudo credentials are already cached (via <code>sudo -n true</code>)</li>
|
||
<li>Detects when sudo fails due to missing credentials</li>
|
||
<li>Provides helpful error messages and exit cleanly</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>Your sudo password timeout is controlled by the system’s sudoers configuration (default: 5 minutes).</p>
