Well now the problem HAS been solved.
"Sunday, June 22, 2008 sudo: must be setuid root solved in Ubuntu Go to recovery console (reboot, and chose recovery console in case you didn't catch on to how to do that), fire following commands . Code: chown root:root /usr/bin/sudo chmod 4755 /usr/bin/sudo and reboot the machine by Code: shutdown -r now   In case if you are getting a "Sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440" message on startup then go to recovery console and fire following command Code: chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers -Mihir Patel " So it appears that the ending "shutdown -r now" is essential for some esoteric, if not meta-physical reason. I had done as everyone had suggested SEVERAL TIMES but to no avail as I've stated before. But being somewhat persistant and decided to re-install if necessary, I tried it one last time. It worked... I'd like to thank each of those that had brought something to the final resolution of my problem. By the way, if anyone needs a tester quite good at getting into trouble, I am available!
