Does sudo 1.6.8p7-1.3 set the HOME variable on your system, or it doesn't and this is intentional? If the later is the case what is the reason for this? Did I open some security hole by resetting the environment variables in sudo? Thanks, Tad
Tad,1.6.8p7-1.3 does not set some ENV variables because it was deemed this was a security risk. As a result it functions differently than previous versions and you have to fiddle with sudoers to get it to behave as it did before.
