Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: sudo
Version: Ubuntu Server 7.04
I amm currently using pam_ldap for authentication.
I've created groups on the openldap server which mirrors those in the
/etc/group system file. I intend to *augment* the system group memberships with
those found in ldap. This is currently working for file permissions. This
however does not work when I run sudo or su.
>From the /etc/group file:
admin:x:111:administrator
>From ldap:
cn=admin
gidNumber=111
memberUid=Nathanael
objectClass=posixGroup
objectClass=top
As I mentioned above, as far as file access is concerned Nathanael and
administrator are both members of the admin group. When I run sudo as
Nathanael I get:
Nathanael is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
If I change /etc/group to
admin:x:111:administrator,Nathanael
Then sudo works. I can live with changing the /etc/group file, but when
managing multiple servers it would be nice if I could simply update the
ldap side of things.
Nathanael
