may i correct you on that.

you can write something like:

> 
> # Cmnd alias specification
> Cmnd_Alias  NAGIOS = /etc/init.d/nagios
> 
> # User privilege specification
> UNPRIV  ALL=NOPASSWD: NAGIOS

and after the first initial acknowledge to the sudo disclaimer you are
set to invoke sudo without tty, via crontab, etc.

cheers,
