! Troubleshooting tips and FAQ for Sudo
  =====================================
  
+ Q) When I run configure, it says "C compiler cannot create executables".
+ A) This usually means you either don't have a working compiler.  This
+    could be due to the lack of a license or that some component of the
+    compiler suite could not be found.  Check config.log for clues as
+    to why this is happening.  On many systems, compiler components live
+    in /usr/ccs/bin which may not be in your PATH environment variable.
+ 
  Q) Sudo compiles but when I run it I get "Sorry, sudo must be setuid root."
     and sudo quits.
  A) Sudo must be setuid root to do its work.  You need to do something like

     your $PATH before the directory containing sudo.  If you are going
     to have '.' in your path you should make sure it is at the end.
  
+ Q) Sudo compiles but when I run it I get "seteuid(0): Operation not permitted"
+    and sudo quits.
+ A) The operating system you are running probably has broken support for
+    POSIX saved IDs.  You should run configure with the "--disable-saved-ids"
+    option and rebuild sudo.
+ 
  Q) Sudo never gives me a chance to enter a password using PAM, it just
     says 'Sorry, try again.' three times and quits.
  A) You didn't setup PAM to work with sudo.  On Linux this generally

  A) Some SVR4-derived OS's include a /usr/bin/cd command for reasons
     unfathomable.  A "cd" command is totally useless since a child process
     cannot affect the current working directory of the parent (your shell).
+ 
+ Q) When I run sudo it says I am not alllowed to run the command as root
+    but I don't want to run it as root, I want to run it as another user.
+    My sudoers file entry looks like:
+     bob	ALL=(oracle) ALL
+ A) The default user sudo tries to run things as is always root, even if
+    the invoking user can only run commands as a single, specific user.
+    This may change in the future but at the present time you have to
+    work around this using the 'runas_default' option in sudoers.
+    For example:
+     Defaults:bob	runas_default=oracle
+    would achieve the desired result ofr the preceding sudoers fragment.
  
  Q) How do you pronounce `sudo'?
  A) soo-doo (for superuser do).
