sudo asking for password every time #41

Hi,

I used make all to create a Mojave 10.14.1 VM and it worked flawlessly. I have just encountered one strange issue inside the guest OS: I am required to enter my password for sudo every time. Normally sudo will only ask once and then not prompt again for 5 minutes.

This is on a fresh install where the only command I have run is sudo sh /Volumes/NO\ NAME/moveCloverToEFI.sh. I use a standard macOS user account (not linked to Apple ID).

I have tried setting timestamp_timeout in /etc/sudoers and creating a 2nd user account. The same thing happens. I thought it might be a time sync thing but my guest OS clock has the right time. Running sudo visudo -c reports:

/etc/sudoers: parsed OK

The permissions on /etc/sudoers and /etc/sudoers.d/ are the same as my host Mojave where sudo works normally.

Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea how to debug it?

Actually, haven't figured out the reason for this.
