We can configure sudo to allow particular user to run all commands as root without supplying user or root password. Following steps can help in achieving this configuration:
- Login as root using ssh or 'su -'. We will have to enter root password for this step once.
- Run 'visudo' command to edit '/etc/sudoers' file.
- Add following line to '/etc/sudoers' file:
- <username> ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
- where <username> must be replaced with proper username. For example saurabh ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
The same can be configured for a group using %<group-name> instead of username. For example %admin ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
