Working without typing "sudo"?

  • 772

Please leave all security words beside.

I'm the only one who has access to Ubuntu server and I login to it only when I have something to work with system administration. So I know what I'm doing and I'm aware of it. Now my system works with sudo without asking for password. Is it possible that it runs (system) programs without typing sudo?

And once again - I understand that someone can see this as security mistake, but please, don't write about it.

sudo

  1. Type

    sudo -i

    To your terminál. It creates new root Shell.

  2. Most convenient method of doing this is using

    sudo -s

    This will drop you to a sudo(root) shell.. sudo -i is actual login as root

  3. Thanks for all answers. I will check suggestions. I expected that I can login with user (let's say John) and that John can work without typing SUDO (it is different from typing password - it is already disabled). The user Root is disabled at the moment for login, because there are many attempts to login :-)
