I've been setting up a network using NIS and slowly locking it down. I
want to setup users to be able to SUDO instead of logging in as root.
<br><br>
I started by editing the /etc/sudoers (using visudo) file and entering
%wheel ALL.=(ALL) ALL Then I added my own user account into the wheel
group and tested on the server and it works. <br><br>
When I go to one of my other machines running NIS I am unable to run
sudo, I get a permission error. If I add myself to the local machines
wheel group it works. I don't want to edit every machines /etc/group file
to get this to work. Any help would be appreciated.<br><br>
I'm running RHEL 4 AS on the server and WS on the clients.<br><br>
