25 utility executes commands as other users according to the rules
30 The rules have the following format:
31 .Bd -ragged -offset indent
32 .Ic permit Ns | Ns Ic deny
36 .Op Ic cmd Ar command Op Ic args ...

45 .Bl -tag -width keepenv
47 The user is not required to enter a password.
49 After the user successfully authenticates, do not ask for a password
52 The user's environment is maintained.
53 The default is to reset the environment, except for the variables
63 .It Ic setenv { Oo Ar variable ... Oc Oo Ar variable=value ... Oc Ic }
64 In addition to the variables mentioned above, keep the space-separated
66 Variables may also be removed with a leading
68 or set using the latter syntax.
69 If the first character of

74 variable of the same name.
77 The username to match.

102 Comments can be put anywhere in the file using a hash mark
104 and extend to the end of the current line.
106 The following quoting rules apply:
109 The text between a pair of double quotes
113 The backslash character
115 escapes the next character, including new line characters, outside comments;
116 as a result, comments may not be extended over multiple lines.
118 If quotes or backslashes are used in a word,
119 it isn't considered a keyword.
122 The following example permits users in group wsrc to build ports;
123 wheel to execute commands as any user while keeping the environment
131 permits tedu to run procmap as root without a password;
132 and additionally permits root to run unrestricted commands as itself.
