On Solaris use ''/opt/sfw/bin/sudo'', and config file ''/opt/sfw/etc/sudoers''. Usually ''sudo'' comes with following mode
---x--x--x 1 root root 102128 Oct 4 2006 /opt/sfw/bin/sudo
and ''sudo'' will not work. To fix it run command
chmod 4111 /opt/sfw/bin/sudo
it will set appropriate mode:
---s--x--x 1 root root 102128 Oct 4 2006 /opt/sfw/bin/sudo
