I need help with sudo.conf

[ToddAndMargo]

Hi All,

I am trying to use sudo to work around the following bug
I posted:

     ifdown access denied with USERCTL=yes
     https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1828100

I wish they'd fix the bug, but it does not seems like it
is every going to get any attention.

So anyway, I fired up `sudovi` and added the following
at the end of /etc/sudo.conf`:

      ## Allows members of the users group to down eno2
      %users  ALL=/usr/libexec/nm-ifdown eno2

Now when I run it from the command line, I get:

      $ /usr/libexec/nm-ifdown eno2
      Error: failed to load connection: access denied.

Questions:

1) I thought `sudovi` caused sudo to reread sudo.conf
    on its exit.   Am I mistaken?  And if so, how do I
    force a reread?

2) what is wrong with the syntax of the command I added
    to sudo.conf?


Many thanks,
-T
