Hello Ubuntu
On our network we have our sudoers stored in LDAP. This works fine on
the CentOS 5.4 clients by placing into /etc/ldap.conf
sudoers_base ou=sudoers,ou=Services,dc=example,dc=net
and in /etc/nsswitch.conf we have the entry:
sudoers: ldap
(setting this setting to just 'ldap' instead of 'files ldap' does not
render the machine unbootable as happens if you set passwd and group
this way).
However I am attempting to set this up on an Ubuntu 9.10 client and
getting no joy so far. I have the same settings in /etc/ldap.conf and
/etc/nsswitch.conf and cannot get sudoers to work.
On the Ubuntu box, I can get LDAP entries by typing in getent passwd |
grep ldapAccount, however when you attempt to sudo it fails:
bluethu...@ubuntu3:~$ sudo bash
>>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error near line 0 <<<
sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 0
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
We leave our sudoers file blank intentionally in order to manage this
via LDAP. Again, this problem is ONLY happening under Ubuntu and not
under Centos 5.4.
The only real difference that I see between the two clients is the
sudo version. Could it be that under ubuntu LDAP sudo support isn't
compiled in? if so how to recompile it so that it does?
CentOS 5.4 sudo version:
[r...@ldap2 ~]# sudo -V
Sudo version 1.7.2p1
Ubuntu 9.10 sudo version:
r...@ubuntu3:~# sudo -V
Sudo version 1.7.0
[r...@ldap2 ~]# sudo -V
