Greg, I think I need to change the paths in the sudoer file. I just tried
the "sudo -i" and sudo -s" incantations on my script and they still don't
have the needed path component.

I use the "/etc/sudoers.d" directory with my "username-sudoer" file under
it. Is that file a place where I could affect the path with some kind of
bashism?
