login prompts me for password twice

[Ragni Singh]

hey guys, When I login as myself, it only promts me for password once. When I run sudo ksh, it prompts for for password twice. This is very annoying. Any ideas what is going on here. Any help is greatly appreciated and points will be given.

By default, sudo requires that a user authenticate itrself before running a command. This behavior can be modified via the NOPASSWD tag.
Example: user "guest" can execute "ls" command as root on host "test" without authentification.

guest test = NOPASSWD: /bin/ls

it could be a bad entry in your pam-config,
especialy if you're using ldap. Check out
man pam.conf
