Hi Everyone,

The /etc/pam.d/sudo line:
     auth        required    pam_wheel.so use_uid
requires that the user is a member of the wheel group. When sudo is built
without PAM, the PAM databases are not queried so the user does not have be a
member of wheel.

Try changing the line to:
     auth        sufficient   pam_wheel.so use_uid
or comment it out to allow non-wheel group users sudo access. The user still
has to be listed in sudoers.

Hope this helps,
...doug
