2. Give root permission
Method One: Modify the/etc/sudoers file, locate the following line, remove the previous comment (#)
# # allows people in group wheel to run all commands
%wheel all= (All) all
Then modify the user to belong to the root group (wheel) with the following command:
#usermod-G root Tommy
After the modification, you can now log in with your Tommy account and then use the command su– to get root permission to operate.
Method Two: Modify the/etc/sudoers file, locate the following line, and add a line under root as follows:
# allow ROOT to run any commands anywhere
Root all= (All) all
Tommy All= (All) all
After the modification, you can now log in with your Tommy account and then use the command su– to get root permission to operate.
Method Three: Modify the/etc/passwd file, locate the following line, change the user ID to 0, as follows:
Tommy:x:500:500:tommy:/home/tommy:/bin/bash
Modified as follows
Tommy:x:0:500:tommy:/home/tommy:/bin/bash
Save, with Tommy account login, directly get the root account permissions.
Friendly reminder: Although method three looks simple and convenient, but generally not recommended use, recommended method two.
Ubuntu adds a user and gives the normal user root privilege method
