Install sudo on the other machine and copy the /etc/sudoers file to the
other machine.

The files can be the same (which makes administering easier because one
file controls it all), but they are not shared.  You have to distribute
the file yourself.

HEllo All

How can i configure /etc/sudoers as a centralized
configuration file for two machines .

I updated /etc/sudoers file as the following

# Host alias specification
Host_Alias HOSTS = krishna, kaveri

# User alias specification
User_Alias USRS = sara,saran

# Cmnd alias specification
Cmnd_Alias CMDS = /usr/sbin/swlist, /usr/bin/su, /usr/sbin/lanscan


# User privilege specification

USRS HOSTS = NOPASSWD: CMDS

Here, krishna and kaveri are two different hosts on
the network.
I can run the specified commands in krishna
machine(bcos the above /etc/sudoers file is in that
host ). But can't run the commands in kaveri. ( bcos
user privileges r not supporting the mentioned users.
) how to make the above as a centralized configuration
file ?

How can i run the sudo command in another machine ?

Regards,
Saravanan
