Summary     : Allows command execution as root for specified users.
Description :
Sudo is a program designed to allow a sysadmin to give limited root
privileges to users and log root activity. The basic philosophy is
to give as few privileges as possible but still allow people to get
their work done.

Requires:

   Standard Red Hat 6.1 installation

%CHANGELOG
* Mon Feb 28 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw@infohwy.com>

[sudo-1.6.2p2-1]
- Fixed a bug that caused an infinite loop when the password
  timeout was disabled.

* Fri Jan 28 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw@infohwy.com>

[sudo-1.6.2p1-1]
- Users in the 'exempt' group shouldn't get their $PATH overridden
  by 'secure-path'.  Patch from jmknoble@pobox.com.
- Pam now works on HP-UX 11.0, thanks to Jeff A. Earickson.

* Mon Jan 24 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw@infohwy.com>

[sudo-1.6.2-1]
- Better behavior for -l and -v flags in conjunction with NOPASSWD and
  added "verifypw" and "listpw" options.
- For HP-UX with cc, add the -Aa flag along with -D_HPUX_SOURCE.
- Fix compilation with K&R compilers.
- For netgroup host matching, match against the short version of the
  hostname as well as the long one if they are different.
- Terminate passwd reading on '\r' in addition to '\n'
- Visudo used to loop endlessly if a user entered ^D at the whatnow
  prompt.  EOF is now treaded as 'x' (exit w/o saving changes).
- The 'shell_noargs' runtime option is back based on a patch from
  bguillory@email.com.
- Systems that return RLIM_INFINITY for RLIMIT_NOFILE (like AIX)
  would loop for a very loing time during sudo startup.  A value of
  RLIM_INFINITY is now ignored (getdtablesize/sysconf is used instead).
- Locking in visudo was broken.  We now lock the sudoers file, not the
  sudoers temp file, which should be safe.
- PAM fixups: custom prompts now work correctly and errors are
  dealt with more sanely.  Patches from Cloyce D. Spradling.

* Fri Dec 10 1999 Ryan Weaver <ryanw@infohwy.com>

[sudo-1.6.1-1]
- Better diagnostics on PAM failure. 
- The --enable-noargs-shell configure option works again. The
  noargs-shell run-time option has been removed since it cannot
  work due to the way the sudoers file is parsed. 
- The following run-time options were not honored in all cases:
  set_home, fqdn, syslog, tty_tickets, ticket_dir, insults. 
- Fixed a bug parsing runas modifiers. If a user spec contained
  multiple runas specs, the latter ones may not be applied. 
- #uid now works in a RunasAlias line. 
- Don't ask the user for a password if the user is not allowed to run
  the command and the authenticate flag (in sudoers) is false. 
- SecurID support now compiles and works.

* Wed Nov 17 1999 Ryan Weaver <ryanw@infohwy.com>

[sudo-1.6-1]
- Updated to version 1.6 Full Release.
