The latest version of sudo shipped in RHEL 6.x breaks ldap configuration
Issue
- In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 sudo was compiled to use LDAP, and the LDAP configuration file for sudo was
/etc/ldap.conf. In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1 sudo has been changed to make use of/etc/nss_ldap.conf. This is a regression because it breaks an existing configuration file location supported in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0 - How do I have to configure RHEL6 to use sudo with LDAP maps?
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (several versions)
