I just tried saving it as sudoers rather than as the .tmp file but still it requires a password. Please tell me what I am doing wrong?Here is the file <user is ***># Cmnd alias specification# User privilege specificationroot ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL*** ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL# Members of the admin group may gain root privilegesadmin ALL=(ALL) ALL*** ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL# Allow members of group sudo to execute any commandsudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL*** ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL:-)~MIKE~(-:On Mon, Jun 9, 2014 at 2:23 PM, James Mcphee <jmcphe@gmail.com> wrote:sudoers.tmp is the lock file visudo uses to make sure there aren't multiple edits going on at the same time.On Mon, Jun 9, 2014 at 1:53 PM, Michael Havens <bmike1@gmail.com> wrote:
---------------------------------------------------I am trying to add my user to 'sudoers'. After I do I press cntrl-X and it says the file it is going to save is 'sudoers.tmp' . So I save it like that and my user still requires a password. should I not save it as the .tmp file but rather as 'sudoers'. I don't remember it being like that last time I did this!
