A) Sudo must be setuid root to do its work. You need to do something like `chmod 4111 /usr/local/bin/sudo'. Also, the filesystem sudo resides - on must *not* be mounted with the nosuid mount option or sudo will - not be able to work. Another possibility is you may have '.' in + on must *not* be mounted (or exported) with the nosuid option or sudo + will not be able to work. Another possibility is you may have '.' in your $PATH before the directory containing sudo. If you are going to have '.' in your path you should make sure it is at the end.
