I can't truss sudo -- edit: (you did say run this as root m, as root it did open /etc/sudoers )
Code:
kenneth@isha:~$ truss -f -t open sudo -l
truss: cannot trace set-id or unreadable object file: /usr/bin/sudo
However if it was not using /etc/sudoers it would not work for "ragnor".
There is an easy way of showing it is indeed reading the /etc/sudoers config file
Code:
root@isha:~# egrep -v "^$|^#" /etc/sudoers
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
kenneth ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/su
root@isha:~# exit
logout
kenneth@isha:~$ sudo -l
User kenneth may run the following commands on this host:
(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/su
(ALL) ALL
kenneth@isha:~$
This must have something to do with RBAC.... root being a role and not a user.. not sure.

Ok found it...
When a user is specified during installation a few things happen, it gets the "root" role and so on, but it also creates the following file
Code:
root@isha:/# cat /etc/sudoers.d/svc-system-config-user
kenneth ALL=(ALL) ALL
So sudo was hitting this rule before hitting the NOPASSWD one.., removing that file did the magic.. funny one.
