Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Account issue Post 302705699 by bitlord on Tuesday 25th of September 2012 11:01:40 AM

Our sudoer file is wide open.
But your comment helped me find the answer, thank you.
I uncommented this line.
Code:
## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
%wheel   ALL=(ALL)                 NOPASSWD: ALL

This odd, because I was able to use sudo on the command line without any issue.
Live and learn.

NAME
viewsudo - execute a command as another (virtual) user SYNOPSIS
viewsudo [-g groupname|#gid] [-u username|#uid] command DESCRIPTION
viewsudo allows a user to execute a command as the superuser or another user in View-OS. OPTIONS
viewsudo accepts the following command line options: -g group Normally, viewsudo sets the primary group to root. The -g option causes sudo to run the specified command with the primary group set to group. To specify a gid instead of a group name, use #gid. When running commands as a gid, many shells require that the '#' be escaped with a backslash ('[u2019]). If no -u option is specified, the command will be run as the invoking user (not root). In either case, the primary group will be set to group. -u user The -u option causes viewsudo to run the specified command as a user other than root. To specify a uid instead of a user name, use #uid. When running commands as a uid, many shells require that the '#' be escaped with a backslash ('[u2019]). RETURN VALUES
Upon successful execution of a program, the exit status from viewsudo will simply be the exit status of the program that was executed. SEE ALSO
