With sudo not able to execute cd command

[Rajendra prasad NVR]

Please can any one aware of sudo is not working to execute the cd command

[tux:/orahome]cd dba
sh: dba: Permission denied.
[tux:/orahome]sudo cd dba

When execute this are ordinary user not going because that directory is for root only.
But when i execute cd with sudo it is not giving any error but not going to that directory.

I have configured sudo to execute me as a root with sudo. All other commands are working except cd command.

You can't usefully do this command. After it changes to that directory, it then exits.

Hi,

You should include -

Host_Alias =

# User alias specification
User_Alias =

Cmnd_Alias CD = /usr/bin/cd


DPADMIN CELLMPKG = (OP) NOPASSWD: CD



Regards,
Charlie

if you have already configured sudo then add one more line in /usr/local/etc/sudoers

Cmnd_Alias CD = /usr/bin/cd
