I have sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot.gz file in /tmp

How to install in...

[Ivan Krastev · Accepted solution]

Extract it from archive:
#gunzip sudo....depot.gz

and you will have sudo-1...depot

after that install it with

#swinstall -s /tmp/sudo-1.....depot \*

regards,

[SKR_1]

you need to unzip the file first and then swinstall will work or you can use SAM

gunzip filename
swinstall -s location of file

or simply type swinstall and enter, it will go to SAM text display, ther you need to give the location of depot.

Thanks

Hi,

Unzip the sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot.gz
with gzip -d sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot.gz

then read the README file.

or

swinstall -s /tmp sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot

swlist -l depot: This command list registered depots on server.

move ur depot file to that directory

If no registered on the server Then
cd /tmp
gunzip sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot.gz
swreg -l depot /tmp/sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot
swinstall -s /tmp/sudo-1.6.9p17-ia64-11.31.depot

press enter
go to option > change option> uncheck "Mount filesystems in /etc/fstab or /etc/checklist"

>OK
select u r depot file
go to action> press m
go to action> press I

just go ahead.It will analyse if everything ok u can go ahead with installation
go to

HI Grayh,

I have the same error:
root:/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17 #sudoers
sh: sudoers: not found.
root:/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17 #sudo
sh: sudo: not found.

Do you know how to resolve this error?

The docs for both of you:

http://www.gratisoft.us/sudo/man/sudo.html

http://www.gratisoft.us/sudo/man/sudoers.html

[V. Nyga]

@Marylou:
you have to use the complete path '/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17/sudo'
or add '/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17' to /etc/PATH.

Also to start a command from the current directory use './' in your case './sudo'

I followed your suggestion and added the path '/usr/local/bin/sudo/su-1.6.9p17/sudo' to /etc/PATH - TO NO AVAIL

I still get the error:
root:/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17 #./sudo
sh: ./sudo: not found.

@Marylou:
please show us 'll' (or 'ls -la')

V.

BTW. - you should open your own thread ...

[Torsten.]

@Marylou:

Please open your own thread!

Then tell us exactly how did you install the software.

A path like

/usr/local/bin/sudo/sudo-1.6.9p17

looks somehow wrong to me ...

[prasadb]

Grayh ,

Try using whereis visudo
then you will get the complete path of the visudo file, like /usr/local/sbin/visudo

then run it

#/usr/local/sbin/visudo

and modify according to your requirement

[Grayh]

Thanks every one
