I have a user Alex( userif alex:admin) and trying to grant him sudo access to a userid (cbttest:sytgrp) i.e granting sudo to ID cbttest
I have added the following info to /etc/sudoers file.
alex ALL=(cbttest:sytgrp) ALL
It was working fine, alex was able to sudo to cbttest.
Now I want to restrict alex not to execute passwd change so tried the below options none worked.
alex ALL=(cbttest:sytgrp) ALL, !/usr/bin/passwd
Cmnd_Alias PASSWD=/usr/bin/passwd
alex ALL=(cbttest:sytgrp) ALL, !PASSWD
alex ALL=(cbttest:sytgrp) !/usr/bin/passwd
alex ALL=(cbttest:sytgrp) ALL, !/usr/bin/pass*
none of the above options worked. Please helpme in restricting the user to execute all like cbttest except passwd
