AFAIK, if you're a member of the sudo group, you don't need to authenticate to use sudo. Check if you're a member of that group with the "groups" command. Otherwise, you may have a NOPASSWD tag in one of your sudo rules, which should override the default of authenticate. HTH, Sean -- Sean Quinlan ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
