+Q) When I run sudo on AIX I get the following error:
+ sudo: unable to change to sudoers gid: Operation not permitted.
+A) AIX's Enhanced RBAC is preventing sudo from running. To fix
+ this, add the following entry to /etc/security/privcmds (adjust
+ the path to sudo as needed) and run the setkst command as root:
+
+ /usr/local/bin/sudo:
+ accessauths = ALLOW_ALL
+ innateprivs = PV_DAC_GID,PV_DAC_O,PV_DAC_R,PV_DAC_UID,PV_DAC_W,PV_DAC_X,PV_FS_CHOWN,PV_PROC_ENV,PV_PROC_PRIO,PV_PROC_RAC
+ secflags = FSF_EPS

Q) How do you pronounce `sudo'?
A) The official pronunciation is soo-doo (for su "do"). However, an
alternate pronunciation, a homophone of "pseudo", is also common.
