After installing all packages from software companion dvd, sudo didn't seem to work properly.
It complained about /opt/sfw/libexec/sudoers.so not found.

I checked the size and timestamp of /opt/sfw/bin/sudo on appzone02:

Code: Select all

---x--x--x   1 root     root       62068 Oct 15  2011 sudo

However, jumpstart server has:

Code: Select all

---s--x--x   1 root     root      154804 Dec  7  2012 sudo

I had to manually move the binary from jumpstart server to appzone02.
I also have to change the set uid permission first:

Code: Select all

# chmod u+s /opt/sfw/bin/sudo

Also, I need to edit /opt/sfw/etc/sudoers file first to allow %sysadmin and %adm groups before sudo would work.

I am, however, still puzzled why jumpstart has a newer sudo binary than appzone02. Both should have the same software from Solaris 10 Update 10. I checked on bldint02 that was jumped late last year and it also has the newer version sudo binary.

I then checked on orazone01 that was installed almost 3 years ago and its sudo has:

Code: Select all

---s--x--x   1 root     root      154804 Aug 25  2009 /opt/sfw/bin/sudo

Even though the timestamp is older but the size is the same.
Something's wrong with the package installation today but not sure what and why.
The same software..........

Hope I can solve this mystery.
