Question
You need to restrict a user named "anna" to only run a specific command with elevated privileges, and you want to log all her activities. Which entry should you add to the sudoers file?1.0 Marksanna ALL=(ALL) /path/to/commandanna ALL=(root) /path/to/command, /usr/bin/loggeranna /path/to/command, /usr/bin/logger (ALL)anna /path/to/command (ALL) LOGanna ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /path/to/command
Solution
The correct entry to add to the sudoers file would be:
anna ALL=(ALL) /path/to/command, /usr/bin/logger
This entry allows the user "anna" to run the specific command located at "/path/to/command" with elevated privileges (as any user, including root, hence the ALL=(ALL) part). Additionally, it allows her to run the "/usr/bin/logger" command, which is used to log all her activities.
