Why does my 'ubuntu' user not need a password when using sudo

  • 772

In the default ubuntu amazon image, it's not required to use a password to use sudo.

To allow someone to do this with sudo, generally I need to add a line to sudoers such as:

%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL

However, the default configuration file doesn't mention NOPASSWD anywhere. How is this configured?

password sudo

    I would search in /etc/sudoers.d folder.

    cd  /etc/sudoers.d
grep NOPASSWD *
