Hi

 

Ive just built 1.7.2p1 on CentOS5.1 with no issues. I gave no extra
configure options, accepting all defaults.

I have done this so I can use the #includedir config. However, I can't
get it working.

 

Here is my config:

 

# sudo -V|head

Sudo version 1.7.2p1

 

# find /etc/sudoers* -ls

1090745   12 -r--r-----   1 root     root         5691 Oct 28 15:29
/etc/sudoers

1474644    8 drwxr-xr-x   2 root     root         4096 Oct 28 15:29
/etc/sudoers.d

1474621    8 -r--r-----   1 root     root           57 Oct 28 15:24
/etc/sudoers.d/repo.conf

 

/etc/sudoers, includes:

#includedir /etc/sudoers.d

 

# sudo -l

sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 10

sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting

 

This all works just fine when I change the #includedir to just #include
the second file:

 

/etc/sudoers, includes:

#include /etc/sudoers.d/repo.conf

 

Cant find any similar problems, no bugs, no config options to switch
includedir on.

Any ideas ?

 

 

Thanks
