Hi John;

Thanks for the suggestion, but nope: with that line commented out in 
sudoers (so that only the one with NOPASSWD is in effect", the error is the 
same. 

"Failed to stop httpd.service: Interactive authentication required."

Besides, I'd have thought that the latter statement would have overridden 
the former statement anyways, in a top-to-bottom processing. 

So, still scratching my head...

Tim
