I cannot seem to allow the user (In this case Ruby) to run sudo rm -rf
, sudo rmdir
, or sudo mkdir
. I have tried it with other commands and it works fine allowing that user to run sudo apt-get update
it just does not work allowing them to do those commands.
Here is my sudoers file if this helps:
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of
# directly modifying this file.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
