Re: sudo with my aliases

Hello,

sudo command doesn't understand the alias I defined.
How can I make "sudo" work with the aliases I defined for my account?

Presuming standard setup, put in your script near top:

# Source user environment
. /home/${SUDO_USER}/.bashrc

I think I've already set it up like you said.
The thing is that I'm using a mac (Tiger).

/Users/sam/.bash_login has the alias definitions.
But the aliases don't work with sudo.
Are you sure that it works?

Thanks.
