hello,
I got my knoppix cd install on the hard disk.  so now knoppix runs
almost like ubuntu does as in works without any super user parssword
from my hard disk.
but now I want the system to ask me for a password when I log in and
for root as well when I try to su in the bash prompt.
how can I enable both this things?

sudo passwd <username>
Like, for root
sudo passwd root
It will ask you for new password twice.
Similarly, you can do for all the users on the system. Once the password is
set for the current user, it will use that password for sudo, as far as I
know.
