sudoedit Command not found issue in Linux machine


There is sudo version 1.6.7p3 installed in our Linux machine. But when I execute "sudoedit", it shows "command not found". May I know why this is happening? What is the way to make sudoedit work?


Solution

  • What is your linux distribution? sudoedit should come with sudo, however, considering how old (circa. 2003) your version of sudo is I would bet that there was not support for sudoedit at this time according to the changelog.

    But that should not be a problem, if you have sudo, sudoedit is just the same as sudo -e.
