Question

Im trying to set permissions for a user named 'invitado', jus for some binaries: wireshark, tcpdump and traceroute. Iv done according to the sudoers syntax which i think is the following:

# /etc/sudoers
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
#

Defaults    env_reset

# Host alias specification

# User alias specification

# Cmnd alias specification

# User privilege specification
root    ALL=(ALL) ALL
ldac    ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
# (Note that later entries override this, so you might need to move
# it further down)
%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL
#
#includedir /etc/sudoers.d

#Permiso de SUDO a guest de wireshark
invitado ALL=NOPASSWD : /usr/bin/aptitude/usr/bin/X11/wireshark
invitado ALL=NOPASSWD : /usr/bin/wireshark
invitado ALL=NOPASSWD : /usr/sbin/traceroute
invitado ALL=NOPASSWD : /usr/sbin/tcpdump

However, i keep obtaining the same visudo error output:

>>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error near line 30 <<<
What now? Options are:
  (e)dit sudoers file again
  e(x)it without saving changes to sudoers file
  (Q)uit and save changes to sudoers file (DANGER!)

Any suggestions??? thanks in advance!

Was it helpful?

Solution

Try removing the spaces after NOPASSWD. Also, you can put all the commands on one line.

invitado ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/aptitude, /usr/bin/X11/wireshark, /usr/bin/wireshark, /usr/sbin/traceroute, /usr/sbin/tcpdump

Edit: Also, I think /usr/bin/aptitude/usr/bin/X11/wireshark was probably wrong. That should be 2 commands, /usr/bin/aptitude and /usr/bin/X11/wireshark.
