Thanks for the reply Todd.
Here is a snapshot of the sudoers file:
# User alias specification
User_Alias TEST=lizbro
# Cmnd alias specification
# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL
TEST ALL=(lizbro2) All,(root) /usr/bin/su - lizbro2
# Defaults specification
Defaults:TEST timestamp_timeout=0
For my test purposes, I su to "lizbro". Once logged in, I run the
following command:
sudo su - lizbro2
I then receive the following error:
>>> sudoers file: syntax error, line 16 <<<
sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 16
Can't seem to get around this. Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot.
