The out put from "sudo -k" doesn't return any thing.
The output from "sudo -l" returns:

User Greg may run the following commands on this host:
(devuser) NOPASSWD: ALL
(devuser) NOPASSWD: !SHELLS
(devuser) NOPASSWD: !SU
(root) ALL
(root) /bin/ksh, /usr/bin/ksh, /bin/csh, /usr/bin/csh, /bin/sh, /usr/bin/sh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh
(root) !SU
usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl


Also; i was asking how can user Greg sudo as "devuser" user so when he sudo he becomes "devuser" so he doesn't have to type sudo before every command he needs to run as "devuser", in other word, how can he sudo to become "devuser" to make the prompt changes from:
#Greg@server>
to
#devuser@server>


I hope i'm making it this question clear enough

NAME
shells - shell database SYNOPSIS
/etc/shells DESCRIPTION
The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser- shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root. A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by the routines which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored. The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh, /bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/pfcsh, /usr/bin/pfksh, /usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh. Note that /etc/shells overrides the default list. Invalid shells in /etc/shells may cause unexpected behavior (such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1)). FILES
