Could it be that you have configured host/port for your regular user in 
~/.rmate.rc?

If this is the case, rmate could likely be update to check if SUDO_USER 
is set, and if so, read that user’s settings.

Or maybe you have setup RMATE_HOST/RMATE_PORT, in that case you’ll 
need to whitelist them. See ‘man sudoers’.
