I'd look this up in the man page, but the package doesn't seem to have
one....
I'm trying to use sudo for some tasks that I start up, so that I don't have
to do a full su to root in a shell window first and then execute the
command that I want to run. However, I can't seem to get the thing to let
me do it.
I've edited /etc/sudoers to allow group wheel to execute all command, and I
made sure that my "regular user" account is part of that group. Then I
type something really simple like "sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog". It then
prompts me for a password. No matter what password I put in (even when I
put in the root password), it tells me the password is wrong.
So, what the heck password does sudo want from me? :-)
