A C<Host_List> is made up of one or more hostnames, IP addresses,
network numbers, netgroups (prefixed with '+') and other aliases.
Again, the value of an item may be negated with the '!' operator.
If you do not specify a netmask with a network number, the netmask
of the host's ethernet interface(s) will be used when matching.
The netmask may be specified either in dotted quad notation
(e.g.E<nbsp>255.255.255.0) or CIDR notation (number of bits, e.g.E<nbsp>24).
A hostname may include shell-style wildcards (see the L<Wildcards> section
below), but unless the C<hostname> command on your machine returns the fully
qualified hostname, you'll need to use the I<fqdn> option for wildcards
to be useful.
If you do not specify a netmask along with the network number,
B<sudo> will query each of the local host's network interfaces and,
if the network number corresponds to one of the hosts's network
interfaces, the corresponding netmask will be used. The netmask
may be specified either in dotted quad notation (e.g.E<nbsp>255.255.255.0)
or CIDR notation (number of bits, e.g.E<nbsp>24). A hostname may
include shell-style wildcards (see the L<Wildcards> section below),
but unless the C<hostname> command on your machine returns the fully
qualified hostname, you'll need to use the I<fqdn> option for
wildcards to be useful.
