sudo and PATH in All Things Unix http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22641347 en Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:20:50 EDT Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:20:50 EDT Re: sudo and PATH http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22652370 yock : The extra dash in...

sudo - -c "command"

...indicates that sudo should source root's profile. Among other things, that'll get you /sbin and the like in $PATH. You could always reference the full path of the command if you don't need everything else that comes with root's profile.

Is there a way to make it use root's path? or at least add something to the PATH? I've looked at /etc/sudoers but I'm not sure what to add there or if it's even possible.
