Sudo file not saved

Hi all,

I have edited my sudoers file. I am using visudo command
I have added the following lines and saved the file.

I am saving the lines as :wq

Quote:

# My Comments
testuser ALL = /opt/support/HealthCheck/./status.pl

But I am very amazed to see that these lines are not written in the sudoers file. I have retried the above process many times, when I exit the editor and try to Re-open the sudoers file it never contain my added lines.

Any Help in this regard.
