In our case, when a user calls "sudo ls", I think it is a three-step
procedure:
1) sudo calls pam_authenticate to authenticate the user
2) sudo calls pam_acct_mgmt to make sure that the account is not
locked, that the ldap/gpo policies permit the user to run sudo, etc
3) sudo refers to /etc/sudoers to determine if it can perform the sudo
action (i.e. "ls").
The GPO Logon Rights relate to step (2) of this procedure.
Except we do not have a logon right in windows that really matches what
sudo is/does ... besiodes given sudo does its own authorization checks,
what's the point of 2 ?

Are you suggesting that sudo skip all of the pam_acct_mgmt checks
(checking for locked accounts, ldap filter policies), or that it skip
only the gpo policy check?
Yes I think that is what Michichael and I ended up agreeing is the most
sensible solution, given any other would prevent the rightful use of
sudo in some situations where it should be allowed.
Simo.
