(rant on)I am trying to protect the system from an incompetent manager making a
bad decision about an operator(rant off).
Anyway so the operator doen't have to log into root I'm trying to setup
sudo to perform several commands.
To shorten the keying I have setup cmnd alias ,but when I try to execute the
alias i get command not found.
So here is my sudo file:
Host_Alias IMAGE1 = xx.xx.xx.xxx
# User alias specification
User_Alias IMAGEUSR1= oper1
# Cmnd alias specification
Cmnd_Alias SHUTL2 = /sbin/shutdown -r 0
Cmnd_Alias CMSDOWN = /opt/scripts/cmsshutdown.sh
# Defaults specification
Defaults targetpw,insults # ask for the password of the target user i.e. root
%users ALL=(ALL) ALL # WARNING! Only use this together with 'Defaults targetpw'!
# User privilege specification
# You should not use sudo as root in an SELinux environment
# If you use SELinux, remove the following line
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
oper1 ALL=/sbin/shutdown -h now,!/usr/bin/passwd root, !/bin/rm, \
SHUTL2, CMSDOWN
# Uncomment to allow people in group wheel to run all commands
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
# Same thing without a password
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
I've done the sudo -K to bring in the changes but when I do a
sudo -l I get:
User oper1 may run the following commands on this host:
(ALL) ALL
(root) /sbin/shutdown -h now
(root) !/usr/bin/passwd root
(root) !/bin/rm
(root) /sbin/shutdown -r 0
Why is it showing the commands and not the alias?
thanks
Mace
