Can I export the users environment using sudo?
I want the user to be able to commands as another user.. but when they do that.. I need them to have the environment variables of the other user. is this possible with sudo?
sudo -H -u user env 'env' is giving me the environment of the current user, not the user I want to run commands as. Hope this makes sense (it does in my head  )
