sudo: error in /etc/sudo.conf, line 0 while loading plugin "sudoers_policy" sudo: unable to load /usr/libexec/sudo/sudoers.so: libldap.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory sudo: fatal error, unable to load plugins I have also tried editing /etc/sudoers.so file in fedora but it didn't work.I'm unable to use root user su - inspite of giving it right password it shows authentication failed.
