[Sudhaadm]

Thanks in advance.
I am facing the problem to install sudo software.
I have downloaded software for sudo and it contains one depot and one tar file as given below.
First i have installed depot file and it is showing on the server.
Is there any additional steps to install sudo.If it is please provide the details.

Hi Sudhaadm

with swinstalling everthing is done for installing.

The tar-file contains the source-code, but that is not needed if you dont want to implement own features.

The next step for you ist to configure what someone should be able do to via sudo.
Therefore run "visudo" to edit /etc/sudoers.

[Geoff Wild · Accepted solution]

use the visudo to edit the sudoers file...

Just eneter: visudo

Example:

oracle svr005 = NOPASSWD: /usr/openv/netbackup/scripts/DB/DB_activate, /usr/openv/netbackup/scripts/DB/DB_deactivate


That allows the oracle user on server svr005 to run the 2 scripts DB_activate and DB_deactivate as root without a password.


for more info:

man sudoers

Hi thanks for the rsponse.
I am unable to see the sudoers file in /etc
>visudo /etc/sudoers
sh: visudo: not found.
>ll /etc/sudo*
/etc/sudo* not found

[Geoff Wild]

Should be in /opt/sudo/bin or /opt/sudo/sbin/

Rgds...Geoff

[Sudhaadm]

Hi the file is location as given below.

>pwd
/opt/sudo/etc/sudoers

# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.

Try /opt/sudo/sbin/visudo

When you swinstall a package (the depot file), it should have changed your /etc/PATH text so that the location of the sudo and visudo programs are included in your PATH. Logout and log back in again and make sure you have the path for sudo in your $PATH variable:

echo $PATH

If not, locate the sudo and visudo commands and append the full directory name containing sudo to the end of the /etc/PATH file. Be sure to append a colon (:) and then path, soemthing like this:

...other_paths/:/opt/sudo/bin

That way, you (and other users) can just type the command: sudo

[Sudhaadm]

Thanks for the great support.
