Linux Basics: The sudo Command
On a Linux system, many system administration operations require root user privileges.
So far, we've learned how to switch to the root user using the su command. However, su requires manually entering the root password, which increases security risks in environments with multiple administrators.
The sudo (superuser do) command solves this problem.
sudo allows you to temporarily execute commands with root privileges without knowing the root password. It also allows you to restrict the commands that can be executed by each user, making it both secure and flexible.
This article explains the basic usage, options, and points to note of the sudo command with specific examples.
