OK...maybe it's just me or this may have already been addressed in the latest patch but I can't update until the final release. This is what I'm seeing under HPUX on IPF. Sudo used to not require you to put in the full path as given for a command. I have several command aliases set up and the user has to do:
sudo -u someuser /full/path/to/command
And are disallowed if they
cd /full/path/to
sudo -u someuser ./command
I seem to recall this not being an issue before. Am just insane or is this truly unexpected behavior?

Some theories on problem solving:
It is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem.
The chief cause of problems is solutions.
Gordon's Law:
If you think you have the solution, the question was poorly phrased.
Woolsey-Swanson Rule:
People would rather live with a problem they cannot
solve rather than accept a solution they cannot understand.
