Senthil,

Use the visudo command to edit the sudoers file as this has error checking.

'man visudo' to find the syntax to configure the access you require.

For example we use sudo to give group1 users root access to all commands without asking for a password, this is achieved by:

%group1 ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

1. You must sudo installed first
2. to configure sudoers files:
# cp /usr/local/etc/sudoers.sample /usr/local/etc/sudoers
# /usr/local/sbin/visudo
add line for ex:
# Same thing without a password
%sysadmin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
--> means, group sysadmin can do everything like root user
donald ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/su - oracle
---> measn, user donald can switch to user oracle without password with run "sudo su - oracle"
