How do I configure a password less Polkit? [OpenSUSE Tumbleweed] [KDE Plasma]

It’s getting tedious to put in my password every time I open YaST, I know what I’m doing and since I’m the only one who uses my computer the security risk is something I’m willing to take. I found an Ubuntu forum post but the solution didn’t work for me. Any ideas?

Modify pam configuration.

UnfortunateShort,

This is the only clean and correct answer.

The PAM configs are like rulesets that are applied in order and for a program. You can find them under /etc/pam.d (at least on distros using systemd I guess). There you just need to put something along the lines of

auth required pam_permit.so

at the very beginning of the polkit named file and it should work. Verify it is tho.

Try sudo passwd yourusername (potentially you have to su as root, not just use sudo) and remove the password from your entire account. This might be a bit over the top but I cannot think of another way off the top of my head.

OsrsNeedsF2P,

Just make your password one letter

TheKarion,

That’s funny I might do that
