Specifying executable name in sudoers in order to pass password

Why has put an executable name in sudoer, but run it still get asked password ?

this is what is edited after by way of $ sudo visudo (user name illustrative)

Code: [Select]

foobar ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/lsblk

Code: [Select]

$ ls -l /usr/bin/lsblk
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 137168 Jun 27 21:32 /usr/bin/lsblk

but still ask password, how to correct it?

I don't know if your syntax is correct, But I'm sure the following one is correct

Code: [Select]

foobar ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/lsblk
