Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Matt Smith 2013-12-17 15:47:42 UTC
Description of problem:
The RHEL6 IdM documentation does not supply detailed information on how to configure clients for sudo management.
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/sudo.html

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 6

How reproducible:
The documentation shows the same lack of information every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Visit https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Identity_Management_Guide/sudo.html
2. Look for sudo client-side configuration.
3.

Actual results:
No doc

Expected results:
Documentation similar to that provided in the RHEL5 docs:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Configuring_Identity_Management/configuring-rhel5.html#Setting_up_sudo_Rules-Client_Configuration_for_sudo_Rules

Documentation does exist in man sssd-sudo, but should also be in online version for completeness.
