[KLUG Members] sudo under Suse 9.2

[Bruce Smith]

sudo seems to run fine on my SuSE 9.2 system.  

One thing that may be your problem, if the command is not in the user's
path (or they don't specify the full pathname of the command) it asks
for the root password.

I also have my user setup to not to ask for _any_ password for my
account.  My sudoer is like this:

bruce ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/pppd, /bin/kill, /usr/bin/killall
