The "who" command uses the utmp file to determine the user name. What you are seeing is due to sudo not creating a utmp entry for the pseudo terminal the command is being run in. This will not be changed in sudo 1.7.x as that branch only receive critical bug fixes. Upgrading to sudo 1.8.1p2 should resolve the issue for you as it will create a utmp entry for the pty that the command runs in. |
