ok ... trying to figure this out but ... not sure where to turn to.

my error is :::
sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 506, should be 0

I'm actually trying to setup xfree/fink/xwm ... etc ..

I've been having this sudo problem for a while ... LOL ... oh well anyway to straighted the ownership problem out?

I've already reinstalled my system which helped some but .... I'd be nice to have sudo again.

along with this ... I created this problem while transfering Ox between partitions ... I think lot's of my users got whacked out of shaped during the move.

any idea would be appreciated.

%su
%"root pass"
%chown -R root:wheel /etc/sudoers

Should fix your problem.
