Description Juergen Weber 2000-09-21 02:58:07 MDT
When the sudoed program is not found, the error message misleadingly
says:
Sorry, user XXX is not allowed to execute 'script' as root on MACHINE.
Comment 1 Todd C. Miller 2000-09-21 10:48:59 MDT
This is by design.  Doing things otherwise allows any user to use sudo to see
what executables exist on the system that he/she would not normally be able to
find.
