Solution

The correct entry to add to the sudoers file would be:

%staff ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh

This line means that all users in the 'staff' group can run /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh as any user (including root) without being prompted for a password.

Here's a breakdown of the syntax:

  • %staff: This specifies the user group. The '%' symbol is used before the group name.
  • ALL=: This specifies that the rule applies no matter what host the user is on.
  • (ALL): This specifies that the users can run commands as any user.
  • NOPASSWD:: This tells sudo not to prompt for a password.
  • /usr/local/bin/myscript.sh: This is the command that the rule applies to.
