sudo su automatically

Question

It is possible to log in automatically as root after typing sudo su - without entering password again? I know it is not safe, but I want this behavior just for specific IP addresses

Thank you, Alex

Yes, but as I said earlier, I want this behavior for specific IPs. P.S. Not duplicate :) — Alex Trandafir, Apr 25 '13 at 11:31

this other duplicate has in one of the answers the host syntax — RobotHumans, Apr 26 '13 at 00:16
Then you should read it again and check hostname resolution or using ip addresses. Hosts in sudoers works. — RobotHumans, Apr 26 '13 at 19:31

You can use a host alias in the sudoers file to specify specic IPs, or subnet ranges ie:

Host_Alias  MAIL = 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0
Host_Alias  FTP = 10.1.0.1, 10.2.0.1

alice   MAIL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
bob          FTP = (ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
