I can't really figure out what the proper syntax is for the sudo rules
in IPA. I have a number of options that I would like included by
default, I have put them in place, from ipa sudorule-show:

Sudo Option: env_keep = "LESSSECURE", env_reset, mail_badpass,
mail_no_host, mail_no_perms, syslog = local2

It looks to be getting confused by the whitespace.

Remove the whitespace for env_keep = "LESSSECURE" & syslog = local2 to:
env_keep="LESSSECURE"
syslog=local2

Let me know if that helps.

Also, can you post a compare against:

ipa sudorule-show defaults

vs

<a host you want to run sudo on> $ sudo -l



This doesn't appear to work, when sudo is run:

sudo: unknown defaults entry `env_keep '
sudo: unknown defaults entry `mail_badpass, mail_no_host, mail_no_perms,
syslog '

One thing that jumps out at me is that the '= whatever' portion is not
being maintained.

The directions in the IDM guide are less than clear, simply referencing
the sudoers page for options. These are all valid sudo options, this is
basically a straight port over from a sudoers file.

So anyone have any experience doing this bit?

It looks like this was actually ttwo problems, one the quoting, and the
second that via the web ui, I had put multiple options on a single line
separated by a comma, so initially one rule was:
mail_badpass, mail_no_host, mail_no_perms, syslog = local2

After fixing the spacing issue, as well as putting each into it's own
statement everything worked just fine.

There should probably either be better documentation, or better
validation of input for those options, or ideally both :). I reckon I
will open a bug up.


Thanks! I agree with you. Might even help to do some level of input validation as well.

Thanks again!
