Hi,
I was trying to make use of the sudo utility, which in my understanding
allows the root to give certains users the privelege the execute a set of
commands.
I configured the file sudoers making use of the command visudo. My sudoers
file looks like this

I have ssh setup on the server and can run a remote xwindows application on
the local machine, but I am trying to setup the system so some of our users
can run a few of the utilities as root using sudo. The problem is that when
the user issues the sudo command the xserver drops the connection

Hi all
Redhat 6.2, rp-pppoe-3.5-1, sudo-1.6.5p2-1.6x.1, single-user machine

After booting the machine I try to start an adsl-connection as a
non-root by entering a
sudo adsl-start
And it does not work:
Excerpt from /var/log/messages regarding this connection-attempt
I have a user that is allowed to login to a shell script and use it to bring
the DSL connection up/down.
I am using sudo to allow him to run adsl-start, which he does by selecting
an item on a menu which runs:
sudo /usr/sbin/adsl-start
This is the contents of the sudoers file:

Sudo will do this. Are you invoking it correctly? Try "sudo su
". Similarly, "sudo su" will put a user directly into a root
sh
Well since he already has sudo access then just have him do a sudo su -

Give the user the root password. It seems you trust this person and would
allow him/her to change root's password, so give him/her the password.
