[Freeipa-users] problem in sudo policy when target commands use local environment variables

[Brennan, Paul J]

Hi Mitra,
   I'm not sure if '-H' is the best option for this. If I'm reading the documentation correctly, it sounds like that option only sets the value of $HOME to ~srvusr. You may want to try:

$ sudo -u srvusr -i /path/to/target_cmd

That should run the command using a login shell for srvusr, instantiating that user's variables.

Good luck,
Paul Brennan
