You're talking about Sudo for Linux - today's new "Sudo for Windows" doesn't support a sudoers file.


No, nine_k is talking about the abstract requirements that are understood by "sudo", asking how they are reflected in this implementation.

Sudo is widely understood to refer to a program which allows specific users to run specific privileged commands.


Nitpick: it’s not “Sudo for Linux”, it’s just “sudo” and runs on a wide variety of operating systems aside from Linux. It actually predates Linux by around a decade.
