Title:
groupmems prompts for password when run as sudo/root
Status in shadow package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in shadow package in Debian:
New
Bug description:
When trying to clear users from a group using the groupmems command,
the user is always prompted for the root's password, even when running
as root or via sudo:
(as root)
# addgroup testgroup
# groupmems -g testgroup -p
Password:
(via sudo)
# sudo addgroup testgroup
# sudo groupmems -g testgroup -p
Password:
I'm not sure if this is desired behavior, but I would expect this
command to work without the root password.
