      Workaround:

      Description: The behaviour is unclear:
      Page 106: student@serverX: lab selinux setup
      This asks automatically for the sudo password, why?
      If I run any yum install as student I get "You must be root to do this.."
      Why am I not just prompted for the sudo pw in this case?
      Further: How long is the sudo pw cached and where? If one enters it once it's no more prompted for it.

      I know it's not your role to be my linux teacher but I think like a student and this questions will come up and I can't answer them; or maybe: "This is configured in the sudo.config file what is taught in another class =P

      Thanks!
      -Chris
