Usually the sudoers file has a commented line like this for both the sudo group and the more traditional wheel group. I usually use the wheel group to have access to all without password, and sudo group to have access with password.
Much easier to administer.

I was wondering: these are the instructions I was given to make it so I don't need to input my password after I sudo.---sudo visudo<password>comment out the line:%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALLand add a new line below it like this:%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALLsudo useradd -G sudo <user>---I was thinking that with the script being like that I probably don't need the last line because the way it is I am telling it no one needs a password with sudo. It would probably be more secure to have:%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: <desired users>is that correct? If I had multiple users who I wanted to not use a password would I separate the users with a space or comma? If I only wanted one user to be able to sudo it would be:%sudo <user>=(ALL) NOPASSWD: <user>what is the point of th ALL surrounded by parentheses?:-)~MIKE~(-:
