Problem with SUDO on HPUX 11.0

[Pete Wieckowski]

Hi there,

    I'm having some issues running a shell from sudo and then listing
directories inside an nfs mount. If I run sudo, then su, it works fine,
unfortunately I need it to work the proper way so I can give access to some
of my monkeys. Here's what I get:

$ sudo /usr/bin/sh
# echo $SHELL
/usr/bin/sh
# whoami
root
# ls /var/CommuniGate/SharedDomains
Accounts      Directory     Queue         SystemLogs
BadFiles      Domains       Settings
# ls /var/CommuniGate/SharedDomains/Directory
/var/CommuniGate/SharedDomains/Directory unreadable

now if I:
# su
# echo $SHELL
/usr/bin/sh
# whoami
root
# ls /var/CommuniGate/SharedDomains
Accounts      Directory     Queue         SystemLogs
BadFiles      Domains       Settings
# ls /var/CommuniGate/SharedDomains/Directory
AccessRights.settings  Main.schema            Storage.settings
Main.data              Main.updates
#

It works.

Has anyone seen this kind of problem before? This is happening on an HP-UX
11.0 box. Here's the mount info:

#
# cat /etc/fstab
# System /etc/fstab file.  Static information about the file systems
# See fstab(4) and sam(1M) for further details on configuring devices.
