OK - the first error above was because the Unix admin had disabled the account within sudoers for troubleshooting until we got an answer.
The issue is we are trying to use a regular account to run the scan. So we add a command into the sudoers file to run the scan program, but it appears because the file (tnilinagent_x64) with the aurguments, which may not be able to be globbed (this is the Unix guys terms) presented to it doesn't actually exist when it elevates the user to root, it ignores the syntax, and it appears that about half of the files that needed to be executad do not exist in CentOS. Below is the syntax we are using - however, using this syntax, this is where we get this error:
"Cannot create file "C:\Users.....". The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect"
Cmnd_Alias SCAN = /bin/arch, /bin/df, /usr/bin/head, /sbin/ifconfig, /sbin/iptables, /sbin/iptables-save, /bin/ls, /bin/ps, /sbin/pvdisplay, /sbin/pvscan, /sbin
/route, /bin/rpm, /sbin/swapon, /bin/uname /sbin/service, /sbin/chkconfig, /home/scanman/tnilinagent_x64
<scanning-userid> ALL=(SCAN)
Can you provide an example of the syntax including the arguments please?
