If you define SUDO in mk.conf(5), you do not need it once more on the command line. Just say `nice make build`. > I'm member of the wheel group which has has the following entry in the > sudoers file: > %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL > > The permissions on /usr/src is: > drwxr-xr-x 17 root wheel 512B Jan 3 09:23 src Even when using SUDO, you need write access to the source and object trees. There are two major ways to get this write access: Either you make the source tree group wsrc and group-writeable, or you unpack the source tree using your own login id in the first place. Here you see both techniques in use: [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ cd /usr/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ls -ald . src/ ports/ obj/ drwxr-xr-x 16 root wheel 512 Jan 6 22:10 . drwxrwxr-x 15 root wsrc 512 Jan 24 21:14 obj/ drwxr-xr-x 47 schwarze wsrc 1536 Jan 24 20:26 ports/ drwxrwxr-x 18 root wsrc 512 Jan 24 21:16 src/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ grep wsrc /etc/group wsrc:*:9:schwarze [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ grep SUDO /etc/mk.conf SUDO?=/usr/bin/sudo [EMAIL PROTECTED] $ grep wsrc /etc/sudoers %wsrc athene=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/make I did not try whether doing make obj as root and then changing the owner or group of /usr/obj would suffice - in any case, even if that works, i don't think it would be too useful. For cvs update, you need write access to the tree, anyway. > Here is the error: > $ nice make SUDO=sudo build [...] > /usr/bin/lndir -s -e obj -e obj.i386 -e Makefile.bsd-wrapper > /usr/src/usr.sbin/httpd > lndir: cgi-bin: Permission denied [...] This looks like missing write access to /usr/obj/usr.sbin/httpd/. As far as i know, make obj neither needs nor uses SUDO. Good luck, Ingo
