Re: [Question #270992]: sudo: unable to cache group

 

Question #270992 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/270992

Description changed to:
I am seeking some help with a legacy Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS Lucid
installation.

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=lucid
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS"

2.6.32-24-server #43-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 16 16:05:42 UTC 2010 x86_64
GNU/Linux

We are getting the "sudo: unable to cache group" error when using our
sudo utility.  User does not matter - this happens with the root user
too.

Our currently installed version of sudo is:
Package: sudo
State: installed
Automatically installed: no
Version: 1.7.2p1-1ubuntu5.8

It would appear that sudo-ldap is not installed on this system - unsure if it needs to be or should be?
Package: sudo-ldap
New: yes
State: not installed
Version: 1.7.2p1-1ubuntu5.8

As far as I can tell, this is the most current version for these
packages for the 10.04.4 release.  I will be right up front and say that
I have little to no experience with Ubuntu - this was an inherited
system.  My goal is to resolve the issue with the sudo privileges on the
machine.

Is there a fix for this problem?  Are there other, newer versions of
sudo and sudo-ldap that I should install?  Please keep in mind that this
is a legacy production system, so making changes has to be coordinated
and approved through the normal change management process.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide!
