If set, *sudo* will only run when the user is logged in to a real tty. This
will disallow things like "rsh somehost sudo ls" since
*rsh<http://linux.die.net/man/1/rsh>
*(1) does not allocate a tty. Because it is not possible to turn off echo
when there is no tty present, some sites may with to set this flag to
prevent a user from entering a visible password. This flag is *off* by
default.

Does ssh log into a real tty??
If not then all we have to do to limit sudo use to the local keyboarder is
set this, right?
