See if there is a directory /etc/sudoers.d
If not, look for a file /etc/sudoers
Best practice says you should grant access based on group membership, vs managing individual IDs
The whole sudo config is a bit much for a post here... and not something I can type on my cell phone.
In short group permissions start with %
Have her run sudo -l
This will list any commands she is already defined as allowed to use
Sudo is very specific in what it will permit you to do,
Sudo su -
And
Sudo su - root
While aix treats them the same, sudo does not, so make sure she's keying in exactly what she's permitted to do

Subject: Need to add a new user to run Sudo su -
Hi,
I am new to AIX and sudo. We have a new user who will be installing patches. She must use sudo su - to gain authority to install patches but she does not have proper access. Not sure where to add that access.
This is the error
'sorry, msslp is not allowed toe excute '/usr/bin/ksh' as root on sklmxxxx
How do we elevate priv for her id so she can access sudo su -
Thanks
Tony
