[CentOS] sudoers

[Marc-Andre Levesque]

Sorry for this accidental reply. But I might as well take this opportunity to add to the thread.

First, look at the unneeded closing parenthesis in the CMD_CIFS alias.
Second, have you tried 'sudo -l' as nobody to see the available list of commands that this user is entitled to run with sudo?

Another stupid question are you editing /etc/sudoers using visudo? normally located at /usr/sbin/visudo
