nixos/security.sudo: describe extraRules order
The order of sudoers entries is significant. The man page for sudoers(5) notes: Where there are multiple matches, the last match is used (which is not necessarily the most specific match). This module adds a rule for group "wheel" matching all commands. If you wanted to add a more specific rule allowing members of the "wheel" group to run command `foo` without a password, you'd need to use mkAfter to ensure your rule comes after the more general rule. extraRules = lib.mkAfter [ { groups = [ "wheel" ]; commands = [ { command = "${pkgs.foo}/bin/foo"; options = [ "NOPASSWD" "SETENV" ]; } ] } ]; Otherwise, when configuration options are merged, if the general rule ends up after the specific rule, it will dictate the behavior even when running the `foo` command.
