Sudo configuration syntax
Lines in sudo configuration use following format:
<username> or %<group> <machine> = [(<user>)] [NOPASSWD] :<command1> [, <command2> ...]
Note that group is indicated using %sign.
For example:
saurabh barjatiya = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/wireshark, /usr/sbin/tcpdump
will allow user 'saurabh' to run '/usr/sbin/wireshark' and '/usr/sbin/tcpdump' commands on machine 'barjatiya' without supplying password as root user.
