Re: [PLUG] Adding admin account back to sudoers

["Eric H. Johnson" <ejohnson@camalytics.com>]

Keith,

I did not see anything on how to modify sudoers, only to confirm that it looked like this:

#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of
# directly modifying this file.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
#
Defaults env_reset
Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"
# Host alias specification
# User alias specification
# Cmnd alias specification
# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
# Allow members of group sudo to execute any command
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
# See sudoers(5) for more information on "#include" directives:
#includedir /etc/sudoers.d


Thanks,
Eric


I usually manually edit the /etc/sudoers files to allow the sudo group if its not already allowed and then I add the necessary accounts to the sudo group.
