Grant Sudo Access in Ubuntu

Grant Sudo Access in Ubuntu

To make changes in Ubuntu, you need to be a member of the "Super Users" or Sudo group. Membership of this group acts like the administrator group on a windows system, allowing users to make changes to the operating system. Ubuntu will prompt you for the sudo password (which is recommended to be different to your normal user password for security reasons) when you attempt to make changes to the OS.

To grant a user sudo access:

1. log in with your own sudo level access account
2. enter the command sudo adduser sudo
