Quote:Sudo is a simple program which allows the administrator to give regular users extra permissions to execute the commands they would normally not be allowed to use. Thanks to sudo, we can execute commands that are usually restricted to the root account. In practice, it looks like that: instead of typing su ->password -> command you type sudo command. In order to use sudo you need to configure it properly. This FAQ is supposed to help you with this task.
