Need Help Sudoer file for Sudo

Hi All,
I need help in sudoer file. I have define few line below

Runas_Alias DB = oracle, sybase

# User privilege specification
sybasev2 All=(ALL) SETENV: ALL

# DBA can run commands as oracle or sybase without a password
sybasev2 ALL = (DB) NOPASSWD: ALL

when i type command sudo sybasev2 -> got an error "user NOT in sudoers"

Actually what i want to do is i want to create user account sybasev2 act as like root.
If someone can help me out here i would appreciate

This is what you find in man sudoers.

%wheel ALL = (ALL) ALL

here the wheel is a group and anyone in the wheel group can have root privilege.

You need to login in as sybasev2 and run sudo to get what you want.

add "wheel" in the unix groups file, wiht the appropriate members.

then you should be able to modify "%wheel" actions / defiitions in sudoers

Here you can do 2 things:

1> Put the user in the group where root exists, so it will have all the permissions of root.

2> You can otherwise create the user and give permission like

ALL=ALL

But before giving root to anyuser, make sure what you are giving to him...!!

Re: Need Help Sudoer file for Sudo

Thanks Anita,
what i did in /etc/group added
root::0:root,

In sudoer file :

Cmnd_Alias REBOOT = /usr/sbin/reboot
Cmnd_Alias SHUTDOWN = /usr/sbin/shutdown

ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL, !REBOOT, !SHUTDOWN

# sudo
(They still ask me for password )

Can someone see what i did wrong?
Thanks for all of you input...
