First, it's poor form to snarf another topic/thread, and start up a new
question that's unrelated to the previous.

Having said that, as I'm no longer running RHL9, I can't answer on that
front...however, I've never run into this.

Realizing, up front, that this doesn't answer your question, I do have
ask...why would you bother using sudo as root?  The whole point of sudo is
to be able to run commands as root...if you're already root, why would you
need to use sudo?
