Or, if you don't mind burning time and battery juice on one of your N900s, you can run something like this on the N900 itself:
Code:
# find / -xdev -exec fgrep -H sudo {} +
# find /home -xdev -exec fgrep -H sudo {} +
(if you've got find symlinked to GNU's find instead of busybox's, depending on the version, the '+' may not be recognized, in which case you may have to settle for the much slower '\;' - not sure when GNU's find gained support for that '+' syntax...)
