Please can you post your /etc/sudoers so we can consider where the problem may be. There is unlikely to be anything sensitive in it, but you may prefer to change the user names from your format to just User1, User2, etc.



Thanks, in advance,
Robin

Furthermore: Did you compile sudo yourself or is it a download from a HP-Archives?
