Been reading up on sudo issues and on a test box I tested the mix-matched hostname error and it sure does hose sudo.

 

I did:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo hostname –v mybox

 

now when I do a sudo I get:

sudo: unable to lookup mybox via gethostbyname()

 

The posts I’ve found was the only way to fix is reinstall or run recovery from the CD.  And disable sudo.

 

What’s your opinion on sudo?

 

Thanks,

Bill
