Is it possible to use sudo with !requiretty for a specific command

Question

I am trying to allow a specific command to be run under sudo without a tty. I found that I can disable requiretty for a group :

Defaults:%support !requiretty

But I dont know how to do it for a single command. Is it possible at all ?

You should be able to do:

Cmnd_Alias                NOTTYCMDS = /path/to/cmd1, /path/to/cmd2
Defaults!NOTTYCMDS        !requiretty

	Looks promising, but this does not work for me. – takeshin Dec 21 '11 at 10:06
	This works for me running Sudo version 1.7.4p5. – Keith Burdis Oct 24 '12 at 11:30

To disable sudo tty requirement for a single command use the following in the sudoers file:

Defaults!/path/command !requiretty
