INTEGRATING SUDO RULES WITH ENTITIES REPRESENTED IN AN LDAP DIRECTORY
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for a Light Weight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory server, the method comprising:
- receiving a request to add a sudo rule to an LDAP repository, the LDAP repository having an LDAP schema facilitating an integration of sudo rules with other entities represented in the LDAP repository, the sudo rule defining at least one sudo command and one or more entities associated with an execution of the at least one sudo command;
creating an LDAP entry for the sudo rule; and
linking, in the LDAP entry of the sudo rule, an LDAP entry of the at least one sudo command with LDAP entries of the one or more entities associated with the execution of the at least one sudo command.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for integrating Sudo rules into a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) repository. An LDAP directory server receives a request to add a sudo rule to the LDAP repository. The sudo rule defines at least one sudo command and one or more entities associated with the execution of the sudo command. The LDAP directory server creates an LDAP entry for the sudo rule, and links in the LDAP entry of the sudo rule an LDAP entry of the sudo command and LDAP entries of the entities associated with the execution of the sudo command.
