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.
