comparing /etc/sudo.conf on the bitfolk box and your other debian machines
may highlight the cause.
regards, Tim
All these are the same:
/etc/sudo.conf
/etc/sudoers
/etc/sudo_logsrvd.conf
/etc/pam.d/sudo
/etc/pam.d/sudo-i
Ah, the difference is that on my bf machine my login is in the group 'sudo',
that allows me to be 'sudo -s'. Add myself to that group on another machine and
I see the same behaviour.
I found this explanation:

OK: I accept it but it does result in something that I do not expect when I run
"who".
