You can control sudo rights from FDS, you just need sudo
schema, sudo entries 
to the FDS and sudo that supports LDAP for rule storage.

I took sudo from Fedora Core 4, enabled the LDAP support and
re-compiled, it 
works fine. My sudo is sudo-1.6.8p8-2.4.i686.rpm.

My servers are RHEL4ES.

You can populate your directory with netgroup information
which sudo can
use.
