Hi All,

I'm experiencing a problem with sudo.

sudo selectively execute file in a directory, * wildcard on dir set wit=
h "(ALL)
NOPASSWD:".

I created a script called "script1.sh" in a directory.=A0=A0 When I exe=
cute this
script with sudo, it ask me for password which not suppose to happen.=A0=
 I break
out with ctrl+c.

I then copy script1.sh to a new file in the same directory as "script2.=
sh".
Now I execute "script1.sh" again with sudo, now it will execute.

There is no change on script1.sh, All I done is created a new file in t=
he
directory.=A0 But now sudo do not ask me password any more.

At this point I can execute both scripts with sudo with no password.=A0=
 Which is
normal.

Now I delete "script2.sh".=A0 Now the directory has only 1 file again
"script1.sh".=A0 I execute script1.sh now it will ask me for password a=
gain.

All executable file should be executable regardless, I don't know why t=
his is
happening.=A0 Number of files in directory affects sudo?

test123

What could have caused this?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thanks.
