sudo problem with csh

[Todd C. Miller]

It sure sounds like /opt/sudo/bin is simply not in your $path.
Note that sh/ksh uses $PATH (colon separated) whereas csh uses $path
(a space separated list).

I bet if you do:
    set path = ( $path /opt/sudo/bin )

You will be able to just run 'sudo' instead of giving a full path.
On HP-UX the default path for csh is usually set in /etc/csh.login,
although that *should* pull in /etc/PATH.
