Hello Everyone,
I am trying to change our /etc/sudoers (using visudo) to allow 2 commands to be run as root without a password, but it isn't working. Here is the part of the sudoers file that is in question.
# User alias specification User_Alias FULLACCESS = doug, scott
# members of the FULLACCESS User_Alias may run chown and chmod without a password FULLACCESS ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: /bin/chown, /bin/chmod
# members of the FULLACCESS User_Alias may run anything but need a password FULLACCESS ALL=(root) ALL
The part for requiring a password works, but not the NOPASSWD line. I have tried changing the order of these lines with no change in behavior. After each change to the sudoers file, I am logging out of the machine and logging back in to make sure that it is properly reading the changes.
I have also replaced the list of commands with a Cmnd_Alias, with no change in behavior.
Any thoughts or suggestions about what I am missing.
Hi,
Can you remove (root) and then try for NOPASSWD
