Hi,
i have on a machine a strange problem:
i log in with a normal user
i am able to run "su" with this user.
but i can not "sudo"
| Code: | test@dindin ~ $ sudo bash
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
Password:
Sorry, try again.
Password: |
the password i type is the correct one for root..
the user is in the hweel group, and i added
| Code: | | %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL |
to the /etc/sudoers

use current user's password for sudo, target user's password for su
