sudo

ortsvorsteher · #1 (**permalink**) 01-30-2003

Hi all,

were running some hp-ux servers. Some with 11.00 and some with 11.11.

On all servers we have installed and configured sudo. And only at two hosts sudo asks the users for the password, on the others not.

Now the question. Where can i change the settings, that the user don`t will be asked the password?

THX for help. ;-)

regards, Frank

check the sudoers file. once a user is authentecated, by default he is able to use sudo without a password for 5 minutes i believe.

i think he tryin' to get rid of askin' passwds at all
THIS must be specified on sudo configuration file, to edit one you for sure need root access on that pc's, but also will be wrong if you run for example nfs sharing this sudo conf file.
But as i still lame better believe the MANUALS than me.

With respect. hachik.

Check the sudoers man page, and look for the NOPASSWD attribute.
