I'm far from competent with /etc/sudoers syntax.

   I have a simple, one-line script in /home/<user>/shell-scripts/homenet.sh
that I want to have run with root privileges (because it copies
/etc/resolv.conf.home to /etc/resolv.conf).

   With this line in /etc/sudoers

%users = ALL=(root) NOPASSWD /home/<user>/shell-scripts/homenet.sh

the command, 'shell-scripts/homenet.sh', tells me permission is denied to
create the file. With no entry in /etc/sudoers but running the comand
following 'sudo ' I'm told that the user is not allowed to execute the
script as root on that host.

   Please educate me in the proper syntax for /etc/sudoers so a user can run
a shell script as root.

TIA,

Rich
