    Posted on

    Hi Team,

    I am new to unix and post editing the sudoers file in my Lab redhat machine i guess i tampered it.

    I have a application who's account had to be added there to provide certain set of permissions.

    Post editing i guess it corrupt.

    When my monitoring tool deploys the Monitoring Agent on the Unix machine i get this error:

    Failed to install kit. Exit code: 1
    Standard Output: Sudo path: /usr/bin/

    Standard Error: sudo: >>> /etc/sudoers: syntax error near line 1
    sudo: parse error in /etc/sudoers near line 1
    sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
    sudo: unable to initialize policy plugin

    Exception Message:
