How to set up sudo

[imryn]

Hi folks,

I am wondering how I can set up sudo for Fedora Core 3. I want to be able to give users the right to create files. And I would like to create a sudo user so do I don't have to login in to root all the time too.

Thank YOu,
imryn

You need to edit the /etc/sudoers file.
To get information on this file, try this command:
man sudoers

You should really use the command 'visudo' to edit your sudo configuration, the command provides a certain level of protection from mistakes you or others with root access might make. Plus it's less keystrokes than 'vi /etc/sudoers'.

Have a look at the man page for more info.
