(Hint: you need to add a line with your user name and the word ALL in it.) You can edit it with any editor, or if you know vi, then you can use visudo. You will have to have admin privileges to do this, so if you can't su to root, you will need to find out how to do that, first. And of course, if you can do that, you don't need sudo. To me, sudo is a fine tool if you want to give access to a few admin tools to people who don't (and shouldn't) know the root password. However, I can't see the point of using it if you're the person who installed Linux and created the root password. For me personally, using sudo on a personal system is just best practices since I administer other servers; discipline if you will. Having done root and sudo at some point during my use of *nix the sudo is not particularly inconvenient. If I have a few things to do as root I will sudo. If I have several things to do as root I will su to root. If I have root environment specific things I need to do I will su - or login directly to root. I prefer not to stay there any longer than necessary and for security my root pw tends to be, well... long. As mentioned, it is the beauty of the *nix world. Do what works best for you. Adding a user I simply edit the /etc/sudoers file with vi with the + flag (so I don't have to scroll down so far) and add my user. ## Allow root to run any commands anywhere rootALL=(ALL) ALL edited to: ## Allow root to run any commands anywhere rootALL=(ALL) ALL userALL=(ALL)ALL This has worked for me.

Terminal title doesn't change correctly
Suggested by the sudo discussion. When I open a new XFCE terminal, the window title is "terminal". If I ssh to another computer via ssh mooch, the title changes to "sdstern@mooch:~" Typing "exit" to return to my desktop does not affect the window title.
