On v6 B7

 

Using command sudo I get this error, I have sudo commands in my plugins, but now it looks likes sudo is broken ?

 

sudo
sudo: unable to stat /etc/sudoers: Permission denied
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
sudo: unable to initialize policy plugin

 

I tried to install sudo, Downloaded  sudo-1.8.9p5-x86_64-1.txz and install it. and believe it or not, sudo is back and working!!

What is your typical use case for 'sudo' in unraid?

When logged in as root run commands as user nobody (cp, mv, ...). Also there are some plugins which use the sudo command to start processes in the context of user nobody.

This works for me:

 

(logged in as root)

 

root@Tower:~# sudo -u nobody touch /mnt/disk1/test
root@Tower:~# sudo -u nobody rm /mnt/disk1/test

 

What's the problem?

 

There is also a bash alias named 'user' that uses 'su' command.

I tried this with beta7 and it is working on my system.

 

No addons except Dockerman and unmenu.

I will do a test without OpenVPN plugin.....

Found the issue, it was the openVPN  package that was bad, now back to version 2.3.2 all good. Plugins will be updated soon.
