Sudo rights should only belong to the group "admin" To verify that a user should have sudo rights, check the /etc/group file, and look for the "admin" line. Users with sudo rights should be listed as such: admin:x:110:vidd,jester45
The example shows that user vidd and user jester45 have sudo rights on this particular server. vidd -- xubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel
