[sudo-users] sudo on AIX

The typo was in my email but I figured it out. I guess its a rookie
mistake.
The user had "security" in his group set even though "sysadmin" was his
primary group.  Security required a passwd. After I took the security
group out of his group set he was good to go.
Example:
User_Alias FULLUSER=req66668,req73912,%sudoroot
User_Alias PARTUSER=req74761,req73991,%security
# User privilege specification
root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
FULLUSER        ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL
PARTUSER        ALL=(ALL) ALL
