sudoers

i just installed/configured apache2.0 on my own aix5.3 mini server. i can start/stop apache by root, but i want to start it under my login id(admin) instead.

i need to execute this command:

/usr/bin/sudo /usr/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/apachectl stop/start.

What is your question? Have you looked at man sudoers?

i just want id calls admin to start/stop apache.

i vi /etc/sudoers:

admin ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/apachectl

i still could not stop/start apache by admin.

my command:

/usr/bin/sudo /usr/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/apachectl start

sorry, i have not a chance to install man sudoers yet.

You should use the visudo command to edit /etc/sudoers.

Also, pay close attention to the permissions on the /etc/sudoers file. Read the man page.
