2. On my re-installed RPi I added a new user and su-ed to it. Later on this user tried to do a bit of adminstration using sudo. Not too surprisinfly, I received an error message saying that this user was not a sudoer and I would be reported to the Thought Police!

I looked at /etc/sudoers and found that it contains the standard entry:
    %sudo   ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
and that the new user is in group sudo.

So why couldn't the new user sudo?

At a guess, the new user isn't in the 'sudo' group.
