Can you turn on debugging?

"sudoers_debug    2"

to /etc/sudo-ldap.conf (assumes RHEL6.3)

Also you could try adding the host directly to the sudo rule and not via a host group as that seems buggy....

Subject: [Freeipa-users] Setting up sudo in FreeIPA v2.2

I have the server setup to manage sudo and I configured a target client to use the IPA server for sudo.  When a user tries to use sudo (in this case "sudo su -") it fails and they get the error "user is not allowed to run sudo on client-host.  This incident will be reported." I verified via the log files that the client is making requests to the IPA server when the user is attemping to use sudo and it fails.  I temporarily disabled using the IPA server for sudo and I get the standard "User not in the sudoers file...."

Its starting to look like the server rules maybe the issue but I believe I have the sudo rule setup correctly.  I created a sudo command "/bin/su", created a sudo rule "Sudo to root" , added the group the user in question is a part of to the WHO-->User Groups; Added the Host Group the target client host is part of to Access This Host-->Host Groups and added the sudo command to the sudo rule via Allow-->Sudo Allow Commands.  When I delete the sudo rule I get the same result as I did when I temporarily disbled the client host using tghe IPA server for sudo verification.

Any ideas why or where to look to figure out this issue?

Thanks,
David
