  • 1.  Configuration error sudoers

    We have to log every administrative command. Therefore I added this line to the sudoers file:

    Defaults log_output

    Then I get following  error while closing visudo, and every sudo su -:

    > sudo su -
    sudo: unknown defaults entry `log_output'

    Any idea?

    What are the defaults I have to configure. We don't need the replaying function, we just have to log commands made after a context switch per sudo.

    oslevel is aix #7.1.0.0

    / #sudo -V
    Sudo version 1.7.2

    Thank in advance

    The log_output option was introduced in Sudo version 1.7.4p4.  Looks like you will need to upgrade Sudo to use it.

    Also, the log_output feature is used to log the output from commands not the commands entered.

    ok, then

    DEFAULTS LOG_INPUT

    would be the right configuration. Same dependencies to sudo version 1.7.4p4?

    Thanks in advance
