sudo still ask for password when NOPASSWD is used

I read all sudo posts on serverfault, but I still cannot figure out what I'm doing wrong. Normally I finally find the solution but not this time :

I want apache user to be able to execute this command as user "hremotessh" :

sudo /home/hremotessh/scripts/redirect.sh 8892 8893

Therefore I added this in visudo :

apache ALL=(hremotessh) NOPASSWD: /home/hremotessh/scripts/redirect.sh

But sudo is still asking the password ?

sudo /home/hremotessh/scripts/redirect.sh
[sudo] password for apache:

I tried this, but not better :

sudo -u hremotessh /home/hremotessh/scripts/redirect.sh
hremotessh is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.

Any idea would be warmly welcomed :-)

Unless you want to run the command as root you need to specify the username, so

 su - apache -s /bin/bash 
 sudo -u hremotessh /home/hremotessh/scripts/redirect.sh 8892 8893

is the correct syntax to test the sudo command.

Since you're not prompted for the apache user's password sudo seems to be configured correctly.

The resulting warning: hremotessh is not in the sudoers file. indicates that another sudo command is used in the redirect.sh script. And there's no (valid) sudo policy for that user.
