Hi,

I've a few machines where I'm running Squeeze as guests and ever since
the upgrade to Squeeze or fresh installation of it, sudo does not work
as expected: I always have to enter the password. Every time. If you
don't mind, I've added a more detailed explanation over at serverfault.com .

I see this problem on machines with older Debian Lenny machines as well
as Squeeze on the host system too:

               crypto api: nss
          python bindings: no
   use library versioning: yes

Paths:

         initrd-Directory: $(sysconfdir)/init.d
       pkgstate-Directory: /var/run/vservers
          vserver-Rootdir: /var/lib/vservers

thanks,
