[Gllug] Having trouble adding NOPASSWD line to sudoers

[Benjamin Goodacre]

Dear all,

I am having trouble adding a line to sudoers that will allow a specific
user to reload BIND without being asked for a password. This would allow
me to reload all my BIND servers using a script from one machine.

I looked up the syntax here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers

and implemented the following line:

user   ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/rndc

However now ALL commands using sudo are allowed to be run without a
password.

I have also tried a similar syntax:

user   ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/rndc

which has the same effect. I have tried referencing the init.d script in
case for some reason it does not like the rndc command.

Thanks,

Benjamin
