Hi group, I connect to the web using
$sudo /usr/sbin/pon <isp> on one machine(2.6.20-gentoo-r6). On another machine(2.6.19-gentoo-r5), I get :sudo: can't open /etc/sudoers: Permission denied. But both files have identical permissions: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /etc/sudoers -r--r----- 1 root root 1875 Feb 3 21:14 /etc/sudoers [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ ls -l /etc/sudoers -r--r----- 1 root root 1717 May 23 16:38 /etc/sudoers I used visudo on both machines and wrote identical lines in each: heathen localhost = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pon hd heathen localhost = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/poff hd usernames of course are different. All other lines are exact matches. The non-compliant machine connects but only as root. This is /etc/group from the machine that works. The 'wheel', 'dialout', 'users', 'root', 'bin', 'daemon', 'sys', 'adm'... lines are the same on both machines: root:x:0:root bin:x:1:root,bin,daemon daemon:x:2:root,bin,daemon sys:x:3:root,bin,adm adm:x:4:root,adm,daemon tty:x:5: disk:x:6:root,adm lp:x:7:lp mem:x:8: kmem:x:9: wheel:x:10:root,heathen floppy:x:11:root mail:x:12:mail news:x:13:news uucp:x:14:uucp man:x:15:man cron:x:16:cron console:x:17: audio:x:18:heathen cdrom:x:19:heathen dialout:x:20:root ftp:x:21: sshd:x:22: at:x:25:at tape:x:26:root video:x:27:root,heathen squid:x:31:squid gdm:x:32:gdm xfs:x:33:xfs games:x:35: named:x:40:named mysql:x:60: postgres:x:70: cdrw:x:80:heathen nut:x:84: usb:x:85:heathen vpopmail:x:89: users:x:100:games,heathen nofiles:x:200: qmail:x:201: postfix:x:207: postdrop:x:208: smmsp:x:209:smmsp slocate:x:245: portage:x:250:portage,heathen utmp:x:406: nogroup:x:65533: nobody:x:65534: rpc:x:111: ldap:x:439: Don't know what else to show the group :( -Maxim ____________________________________________________________________________________You snooze, you lose.
