Re: [PLUG] Adding admin account back to sudoers

Glad you got it working but your sudoers file was correct (typical ubuntu) so you could have added administrator to the admin or sudo group as well.

All,

Got it. Just added administrator to be the same as root in sudoers.

Thanks,
Eric


Another sudo tip:  entries that are later in the sudoers file override the earlier ones.
I always add myself as the last line of the file to prevent that from screwing me up.
Also good practice to use visudo as noted earlier. If you don't like vi[m] you can 
export EDITOR=/bin/nano 
in your .bashrc or .zshrc or .whateverrc
