sudo logs in one place. If you don't have syslog

SunOS 3.x and all versions of Ultrix) you should
probably use "file" logging. The default is "syslog".

--without-mail-if-no-user Normally, sudo will mail to the "alermail" user if
the user invoking sudo is not in the sudoers file.
This option disables that behavior.

allowed to use sudo but the command they are trying
is not listed in their sudoers file entry.

--with-passprompt Default prompt to use when asking for a password; can
be overridden via the -p option. Supports two escapes:
"%u" expands to the user's login name and "%h" expands
to the local hostname. Default is "Password:".

via the -p option and the SUDO_PROMPT environment variable. Supports
two escapes: "%u" expands to the user's login name and "%h" expands

incorrect password. The default is
"Sorry, try again." unless insults are turned on.

--with-fqdn Define this if you want to put fully qualified
hostnames in the sudoers file. Ie: instead of myhost
you would use myhost.mydomain.edu. You may still use
the short form if you wish (and even mix the two).
Beware that turning FQDN on requires sudo to make DNS
lookups which may make sudo unusable if your DNS is
totally hosed. Also note that you must use the host's
official name as DNS knows it. That is, you may not
use a host alias (CNAME entry) due to performance
issues and the fact that there is no way to get all
aliases from DNS.

Use only if don't run sendmail or the equivalent.
--with-sudoers-mode=mode File mode for the sudoers file (octal). Note that
if you wish to NFS-mount the sudoers file this must
be group readable. Also note that this is actually
set in the Makefile. The default mode is 0440.

NFS-mount the sudoers file this must be group readable. Also note
that this is actually set in the Makefile. The default mode is 0440.

is the numeric id, *not* the symbolic name. Also
note that this is actually set in the Makefile.
The default is 0.

User id that "owns" the sudoers file. Note that this is the numeric
id, *not* the symbolic name. Also note that this is actually set in
the Makefile. The default is 0.

The default is 0022.

Umask to use when running the root command. The default is 0022.
--without-sudo-umask Preserves the umask of the user invoking sudo.

Preserves the umask of the user invoking sudo.
--with-runas-default The default user to run commands as if the -u
flag is not specified on the command line.
This defaults to "root".
--with-runas-default=user
The default user to run commands as if the -u flag is not specified
on the command line. This defaults to "root".
--with-exempt=group Users in the specified group don't need to enter a
password when running sudo. This may be useful for
sites that don't want their "core" sysadmins to have
to enter a password but where Jr. sysadmins need to.
You should probably use NOPASSWD in sudoers instead.

Users in the specified group don't need to enter a password when
running sudo. This may be useful for sites that don't want their
"core" sysadmins to have to enter a password but where Jr. sysadmins
need to. You should probably use NOPASSWD in sudoers instead.
--with-editor Specify the default editor used by visudo (and the
only editor used unless --with-env-editor is
specified). The default is vi.
--with-editor
Specify the default editor used by visudo (and the only editor used
unless --with-env-editor is specified). The default is vi.
--with-env-editor Makes visudo consult the EDITOR and VISUAL environment
variables before falling back on the default editor.
Note that this may create a security hole as most
editors allow a user to get a shell (which would be a
root shell and hence, no logging).
--with-env-editor
Makes visudo consult the EDITOR and VISUAL environment variables before
falling back on the default editor. Note that this may create a
security hole as most editors allow a user to get a shell (which would
be a root shell and hence, no logging).
--with-passwd-tries Number of tries a user gets to enter his/her password
before sudo logs the failure and exits.
The default is 3.
--with-passwd-tries=tries
Number of tries a user gets to enter his/her password before sudo logs
the failure and exits. The default is 3.
--with-timeout Number of minutes that can elapse before sudo will
ask for a passwd again. The default is 5, set this
to 0 to always prompt for a password.
--with-timeout=minutes
Number of minutes that can elapse before sudo will ask for a passwd
again. The default is 5, set this to 0 to always prompt for a password.
--with-password-timeout Number of minutes before the sudo password prompt
times out. The default is 5, set this to 0 for no
password timeout.
--with-password-timeout=minutes
Number of minutes before the sudo password prompt times out.
The default is 5, set this to 0 for no password timeout.
--with-execv Use execv() to exec the command instead of execvp().
I can't think of a reason to actually do this since
execvp() is passed a fully qualified pathname but
someone might thoroughly distrust execvp(). Note that
if you define this you lose the ability to exec
scripts that are missing the '#!/bin/sh' cookie
(like /bin/kill on SunOS and /etc/fastboot on 4.3BSD).
This is off by default.

the '#!/bin/sh' cookie (like /bin/kill on SunOS and /etc/fastboot on

--with-tty-tickets This makes sudo use a different ticket file for each
tty (per user). Ie: instead of the ticket file being
"username" it is "username.tty". This offers
increased security in an open lab or with "shared"
accounts like "operator." Note that this means that
there will be more files in the timestamp dir. This
is not a problem if your system has a cron job to
remove of files from /tmp (or wherever you specified
the timestamp dir to be).

incorrect password just like the original sudo(8).
This is off by default.
--with-insults
Define this if you want to be insulted for typing an incorrect password

--with-csops-insults Insults the user with an extra set of insults (some
quotes, some original) from a sysadmin group at CU

--with-goons-insults Insults the user with lines from the "Goon Show" when
an incorrect password is entered. You must specify

Insults the user with lines from the "Goon Show" when an incorrect

--with-secure-path[=path] Path used for every command run from sudo(8). If
you don't trust the people running sudo to have a
sane PATH environmental variable you may want to use
this. Another use is if you want to have the
"root path" be separate from the "user path." You
will need to customize the path for your site.
NOTE: this is not applied to users in the group
specified by --with-exemptgroup. If you do not
specify a path, "/bin:/usr/ucb:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/etc:/etc" is used.

for include files. Multiple directories may
be specified as long as they are space separated.

--with-libraries Adds the specified libaries to SUDO_LIBS and
and VISUDO_LIBS so sudo will link against them.
If the library doesn't start with `-l' or end

--with-csops
Add CSOps standard options. You probably aren't interested in this.
--without-interfaces This option keeps sudo from trying to glean the ip
address from each attached ethernet interface. It is
only useful on a machine where sudo's interface
reading support does not work, which may be the case
on some SysV-based OS's using STREAMS.

will compile in shadow password support and use
a shadow password if it exists.

--disable-log-wrap

--enable-noargs-shell If sudo is invoked with no arguments it acts as if
the "-s" flag had been given. Namely, it runs a shell
as root (the shell is determined by the SHELL
envariable, falling back on the shell listed in the
invoking user's /etc/passwd entry).

If sudo is invoked with no arguments it acts as if the "-s" flag had

--enable-shell-sets-home If sudo is invoked with the "-s" flag the HOME
environmental variable will be set to the home
directory of the target user (which is root unless
the "-u" option is used). This option effectively
makes the "-s" flag imply "-H".

If sudo is invoked with the "-s" flag the HOME environment variable
