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.

Hello,

In a new RHEL7 installation I've selected user "kuduk" as administrator but once it's installed sudoers files doesn't have wheel rule activated.

Here's my user that belongs to wheel group:

  [root@rhel7 ~]# grep kuduk /root/anaconda-ks.cfg 
  user --groups=wheel --name=kuduk --password=xxx --iscrypted --gecos="kuduk"

But sudoers file has still commented wheel rules:

  [root@rhel7 ~]# grep wheel /etc/sudoers
  ## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
  # %wheel	ALL=(ALL)	ALL
  # %wheel	ALL=(ALL)	NOPASSWD: ALL

If I create a user with admin rights at installation time shouldn't one of this rules be uncommented?

This is a sudo bug as that package owns /etc/sudoers.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2014-03-22 05:50:21 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
