Good Afternoon,
I am struggling with sudo and environmental variables. I feel like i'm missing something silly and just need another set of eyes. I have a situation where i need a user(userA) to run a script using sudo as another user (userB). I want to use some environmental variables from userB (script owner) for the purpose of the script. Specifically $PATH and HTTP_PROXY. I have the PATH and HTTP_PROXY set in /home/userB/.bashrc but when userA uses sudo -u userB script it doesn't pickup those environmental variables. I tried using the sudo options and set env_keep+="HTTP_PROXY" and that still didn't work. The only thing i found worked so far was adding. i've also tried the sudo -i option and that fails. Thanks in advance.
