Hello,
using your command, "sudo passwd root"
ozgur@gw:~/Desktop/$ sudo passwd root
Password:
Enter new UNIX password:
root@gw:/# cat /etc/sudoers |grep admin
# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
root@gw:/# cat /etc/group |grep admin
admin:x:108:ozgur
Sincerely,
man sudo
man sudoers

Hi,
after losing (forgetting) my root (sudo) password, I used the Kubuntu live
CD to delete the "!" from the shadow file for the root entry. After
rebooting Kubuntu from harddisk I was able to reset the password by using
the console login and logging in as root and typing in passwd. However now
I
cant do the "sudo" thing anymore. I keep getting a permission denied. The
funny thing is that now I am able to login as root in console mode or by
typing in "su" from another account.
Does anyone know how I can fix the broken "sudo" feature?
