SUDO on RH8

Mon, 01 Dec 2003 08:20:13 -0800

Linux gurus shalom,

 

We encountered problems with using  SUDO

 

1. While working locally on Linux RH8 machine as a NIS user and trying to run SUDO, authentication failed.

Although authentication succeeded for local users.  

This problem doesn't exists in RH7.3.

  1. We use the same nsswitch.conf file in both systems.
  2. the /etc/security files are identical to 7.3

 

2.while connecting to remote station as a NIS user over SSH session and trying to run SUDO, authentication  failed.

 

We found no leading comments on the matter in the SUDO man pages.

 

Any clues will be welcomed

 

Thanks

 

Eran
