[ubuntu] Domain user into sudoers

[faust_]

Hi!
I'm using ubuntu server edition. And connecting to windows domain using Likewise open, but I can't use domain user as sudoer. I have added domain user into sudoers (using visudo):
domain\user ALL=(ALL) ALL
but when I use

sudo some command
it tells that user is not in sudoers list..

Help!

The following post makes reference to using two slashes rather than one in sudoers.

so try:
domain\\user ALL=(ALL) ALL

rather than:
domain\user ALL=(ALL) ALL

I had the same problem and using the \\ worked perfectly for me.

Hi faust.

Are you still seeing this issue with sudoers? The recommended approach of using "\\" instead of "\" should do the trick for you. If it doesn't, let me know and maybe I can assist.

Thanks.

likeWiseGuy,

I would like to do something similar, and have seen success with Domain\\username, but I need help with groups. For example, I'd like all Domain Users to have sudo rights. How do I do that?


Thanks,
Marcus

I figured it out!!

%DOMAIN\\domain^users ...

Does this only work on Domain Users? I tried to throw the Domain Admins group in there, but no dice. Anybody come across this?

Domain admins group works fine for me. Add:

%DOMAIN\\domain^admins ALL=(ALL) ALL

Also, if you added:

winbind use default domain = yes

To

/etc/samba/lwiauthd.conf

You should be able to add a domain user as a sudoer by adding this to your sudoers file:

USER ALL=(ALL) ALL

I don't need the "DOMAIN\\" prefix

Also, if you added:

winbind use default domain = yes

To

/etc/samba/lwiauthd.conf

If I do this will I be able to login to the machine itself or just into the domain? What if I am working offline?

Can I get the computer to adopt the user rights that are established on the domain?
