Help needed in sudo access
I want to give root access to a user called denielr on server - tsprd01, but do not want to share root password. I have sudoers configured already.
He should have all access equal to root. I made this entry in /etc/sudoers, but it is not working
PHP Code:
denielr tsprd01 =(root) NOPASSWD: ALL 
I tried to become denielr executed
PHP Code:
root@tsprd01:/root# su - denielr
-bash-3.00$ /usr/local/bin/sudo -l
User denielr may run the following commands on this host:
    (root) NOPASSWD: ALL
-bash-3.00$ /usr/local/bin/sudo echo|format
Searching for disks...done
No permission (or no disks found)!
-bash-3.00$ 
Am I missing something ?
