WARNING: a pathname with wildcards will nnoott match a user
command that consists of a relative path. In other words,
given the following _s_u_d_o_e_r_s entry:
billy workstation = /usr/bin/*
user billy will be able to run any command in /usr/bin as
root, such as _/_u_s_r_/_b_i_n_/_w. The following two command will
be allowed (the first assumes that _/_u_s_r_/_b_i_n is in the
user's path):
$ sudo w
$ sudo /usr/bin/w
However, this will not:
$ cd /usr/bin
$ sudo ./w
For this reason you should only ggrraanntt access to commands
using wildcards and never rreessttrriicctt access using them.
This limitation will be removed in a future version of
ssuuddoo.
