..... and you are not prompted for the old password. You will be prompted twice for the new password, so verification is taken care of too. Additionally, sudo will write to the syslog for your auditors to drool over.
I hope that this helps,

heimdal_debug -- how to turn on/off debugging for Kerberos tools
DESCRIPTION
The heimdal_debug kerberos frameworks have several knobs for controlling logging. The different framework knobs are:
libkrb
The Kerberos library, some gss-api Kerberos output ends up here too
kcm the kcm library (credentials cache, ntlm client)
kdc the kerberos KDC output
digest-service
the digest service (ntlm server)
CONFIGURATION FILE
[logging]
<subsystem> = 0-/SYSLOG:
and watch syslog for logging information.
APPLE MAC OS X
First turn up syslog debugging
sudo syslog -c 0 -d
then you can see the syslog output in Console.app or by running
syslog -w -k org.h5l.asl
To enable more extensive debugging logging for each subsystem, use the following commands:
Kerberos Library
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add krb5 '0-/ASL:'
digest-server
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add digest-service '0-/ASL:'
kcm sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add kcm '0-/ASL:'
kdc sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos logging -dict-add kdc '0-/ASL:'
MIT Kerberos Shim
defaults write com.apple.MITKerberosShim EnableDebugging -bool true
GSS-API framework logging
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.GSS DebugLevel -int 10
Other options on Mac OS X
Make the admin API pretend to the server even on client
sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Kerberos ForceHeimODServerMode -bool true
