Help installing sudo

[Ray Allen_1]

Hi,

I'm having problems installing sudo on my hpux server.

Here's the server info
nhoignit# model
ia64 hp server rx1620
nhoignit# file /usr/local/bin/sudo
/usr/local/bin/sudo: ELF-32 executable object file - IA64
nhoignit#


I have looked at serveral post in the forum, but nothing seems to be working for me.

I downloaded these files.

sudo-1.6.8p9-ia64-11.23.depot.gz Binary
sudo-1.6.8p9-src-11.11.tar Source Code


I untarred and swinstalled sudo-1.6.8p9-src-11.11.tar wihtout errors, and it created the following.
catalog/INDEX, 699 bytes, 2 tape blocks

x sudo/sudo-RUN/usr/local/sbin/visudo, 141900 bytes, 278 tape blocks

After that I ran sudo, but it didn't work.
I then untarred the source code sudo-1.6.8p9-src-11.11.tar. Following the install instructions, I ran ./configure, which completed without error, but I did notice the following lines.

checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... no
checking whether cc accepts -g... (cached) no
checking for cc option to accept ANSI C... none needed

After than, I ran MAKE (in lower case), and got the following errors;

cc -o sudo check.o env.o getspwuid.o gettime.o goodpath.o fileops.o find_path.o interfaces.o logging.o parse.
o set_perms.o sudo.o sudo_edit.o tgetpass.o zero_bytes.o sudo_auth.o passwd.o sudo.tab.o lex.yy.o alloc.o defaults.

ld: Can't find library or mismatched ABI for -lroken
Fatal error.
*** Error exit code 1

When I try to run sudo, I get these errors;

nhoignit# /usr/local/bin/sudo
/usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libroken.so'.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Ray,

Once you have untarred the tar file, you need to install it using the swinstall command.

say the untarring was done in /tmp/sudo, install the software using swinstall from that location.

Hope this helps.

As far as I can tell from this output, there is no .depot sudo file to swinstall.
The only sudo file to swinstall is the actual file itself which is:
sudo-1.6.8p9-ia64-11.23.depot.gz
When I swinstall this file, it install with 100% success, and gives me the same output as above.

I then untarred the source code:
sudo-1.6.8p9-src-11.11.tar
It untarrs and creates the sudo directory:
sudo-1.6.8p9
I run ./configure, and it runs successfully.
When I run "make" I get the error:
ld: Can't find library or mismatched ABI for -lroken
Fatal error.
*** Error exit code 1


Do I just need the binary by itself, or both the binary and source code? Also, do I need to install and compile the GCC compiler?

Thanks

[Pete Randall]

You would only need the source code and the gcc compiler if you were going to build your own sudo. If you download the binary, that won't be necessary.

It seems you're NOT installing HP's build of SUDO. I would really recommend you start using all GNU tools that are built and provided by HP instead of 3rd party builds or your own builds.

It is available from the Internet Express Suite:

Pete and Nelson,

Thanks for answering my questions.
I downloded and installed HP's Internet Express version, and this worked. I now just have to configure the files.

Thanks a bunch everyone.

Problem resolved. Downloaded and installed HP's Internet Express version of sudo.
