Better use ixSudo (precompiled version) from Internet Express site - http://h20338.www2.hp.com/hpux11i/cache/324414-0-0-0-121.html


After that use visudo to edit configuration file.

Shalom,

The version of sudo posted above is better because HP ported it and insured all needed dependencies were in the depot.

That is the good part.

The location of the sudoers file is non standard in the /opt file system where all option depots created by HP seem to install.

It is the superior choice to compile it yourself or the version posted in the porting and archive center.

do "visudo". I have given basic configuration to assigh user sandeep on machine "myworkstationname" to run "su - root" command

Host_Alias SMS=myworkstationname

User_Alias SUSER=sandeep

Runas_Alias ADM = root, !root*


Cmnd_Alias SUROOT=/usr/bin/su -, /usr/bin/su - root

SUSER SMS=(ALL) NOPASSWD: SUROOT

I have downloaded the isudo separately and when i tried install it says some patch error. My OS version is 11.11 and its requirement is 11iv2.

Before this i have dwlded one sudo depot file. It contains a catalog and sudo directly when i untarred it. I need a depot file which is suitalbe for my OS version

thanks

I wish to do some configuration. For example a particular user wants to execute a superuser command. how can give that. Which file i need to edit.

if you have already configured sudo then modify /usr/local/etc/sudoers files

e.g


# User alias specification
User_Alias =

Cmnd_Alias CD = /usr/bin/cd

Gee,

I have been using sudo for a number of years. The best thing I recall from learning it was to have a server where you can play with sudo and determine the formats that will work best for your environment. What has been very helpful for me was logging the commands someplace other that syslog.log. If you visit the sudo site (http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/sudo.html)there are excellent helps and examples available.
