Title: sudo problem
Post by: deadly7 on June 18, 2006, 11:18:36 PM
So I'm about to install a package and I type "sudo installpkg" and it prompts me for my password, which I type correctly.  All 3 times it tries to validate it I am unable to use sudo.  Wtf?

Didn't you just format?

You'll need to re-configure /etc/sudoers and add your username/a group your username is under.

Yeah, and I just did something really fucking stupid so I need to format again.  :(

But I'll do that after I format.  Heh.
