How to find out what requests superuser rights?

Question

ubuntu

Every time you reboot, a window began to appear asking you to grant superuser rights. At the same time, I can not understand what program or script does this. I did not find anything suspicious in autoload -skype,dropbox,telegram. How to find out what requests the rights of a super user?

Answer 1

tail /var/log/audit/audit.log - in that file all requests for raising rights are collected (and a bunch of other things, I advise you to monitor), get the PID of this shell, then ps -ef find who launched it in the chain. This is true from under the root, and you need to perform the check with a hanging window for requesting root privileges.

Answer 2

Answer 3
