Is anyone having success with #includedir option in sudo? I have a module that uses a definition to create files in /etc/sudoers.d/ which is referenced in the main suders file as #includedir "/etc/sudoers", but these entries are not getting referenced when sudo is used.
I'm running CentOS 5 and 6, which which sudo-1.7.2p1 and sudo-1.7.2p2 respectively. Here's a weird symptom the problem I'm having... # visudo -c -f /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet >>> /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet: syntax error near line 0 <<< parse error in /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet near line 0 (((NOTE: I made absolutely no changes , just did ":q"))) # visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet >>> /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet: syntax error near line 0 <<< # visudo -c -f /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix-puppet: parsed OK This is my sudoers file... ## Sudoers allows particular users to run various commands as ## the root user, without needing the root password. ## ## Examples are provided at the bottom of the file for collections ## of related commands, which can then be delegated out to particular ## users or groups. ## ## This file must be edited with the 'visudo' command. ## Host Aliases ## Groups of machines.

So I know the syntax and such is correct, however it doesn't get called via #includedir.
