  Sudo is included with Mandrake 8.2, which I run, but I have yet to 
get a handle on that config script format.  Geez.  I've tried about 20 
different combinations of 

mike	ALL=/usr/sbin/fetchnews	ALL

with NOPASSWD thrown in here and there, and even when sudo -l tells me 
that yes, I *can* run /usr/sbin/fetchnews, if I try
sudo /usr/sbin/fetchnews
I still get an error telling me that I can't run it.  So far, it's 
easier to just su every time.  8-/
