[lug] sudoers Failure Q

[stimits at comcast.net]

Hi,
 
The addition to wheel was added during install. Since then I've logged out and back in many times. It just seems like the config is being ignored. The file was never edited, and only viewed with visudo to see what was in it (no changes made). Permissions of "/etc/sudoers" should be correct, it is (seems like a bug in the installer or sudo):
-r--r-----. 1 root root 3245 Jun  1 05:08 /etc/sudoers

Just a quick stab, once the user was added to the wheel group, did you log out in then back in? /etc/group is only processed at login.

Hi,
 
I've gone ahead and installed Fedora 25 (KDE spin) since my F23 home is gone and I needed F25 upgrade anyway. However, I seem to have run into an sudo bug. My user is in wheel group, and sudoers file allows ALL for %wheel. The user was set as administrator during install. I can "su -" and become root, but no matter what, any sudo from my user results in this:
myname is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
 
This is absolutely wrong...the user is in wheel, the wildcard %wheel should allow this. Is there a known Fedora 25 install bug for this, or some trick needed to authorize sudo beyond wheel membership in F25 which was not required in F23? FYI, permissions on "/usr/bin/sudo" are:
---s--x--x. 1 root root 147360 Jun  1 05:11 /usr/bin/sudo* 
Thanks!
