Hi All,

i am facing shared library error, below is the output of the command I am executing on my client

[root@mindlanf-1 ~]# /usr/software/bin/sudo
/usr/software/bin/sudo: error while loading shared libraries: libaudit.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root@mindlanf-1 ~]#

I tried install libaudit.so.1 but it says its already installed with latest version

[root@mindlanf-1 ~]# yum install libaudit.so.1*
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
Adding en_US to language list
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* fedora: mirror.cse.iitk.ac.in
* updates: mirror.cse.iitk.ac.in
Setting up Install Process
Package audit-libs-2.1.3-1.fc14.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[root@mindlanf-1 ~]#

Note: /usr/software/bin/sudo is my shared path from server which I am executing on one client

it works on other client below is the output from other client:

[root@mindlanf-2 ~]# /usr/software/bin/sudo
usage: sudo -h | -K | -k | -L | -V

Try running the following command on both servers and compare the output:

ldd /usr/software/bin/sudo

thanks for the reply..

Looks like you're missing some libraries on the box where sudo is not working. What OS is this?

---------- Post updated at 11:58 AM ---------- Previous update was at 11:45 AM ----------

If you're running Red Hat\Fedora, you can run the following command on the box where sudo is working to get a list of rpm packages. Installing those packages on the box where sudo isn't working should fix the problem.

ldd /usr/software/bin/sudo | egrep -o '\/.* ' | xargs rpm -qf
