Granting Normal User To ROOT By SUDO in Redhat
A root user of a system can’t do all things, sharing the root password to other for doing the work is not a good idea. Here is the SUDO setup, which makes a normal user acts like a root. SUDO allows a normal user to acts like the super user for limited tasks. Ex: Normal user can’t add a user, we can assign the task of adding the users to normal users.
Create a user –>> Vincent
Get a the relevant fiel for the command. SUDO setup doesn’t allow a normal user to add a user by useradd command, instead we have to use its executable directory
USERADD by Normal user
#which useradd
/usr/sbin/useradd
Then go to sudoers file for SUDO setup
#vim /etc/sudoers
%vincent ALL=/usr/sbin/useradd
After this sudo setup, useradd can be done only by /usr/sbin/useradd, but not using useradd
vincent@xxxx]$/usr/sbin/useradd kumar
Allow permissions for some specified files
Give file path in the /etc/sudoers files
%vincent ALL=/usr/sbin/, /etc/passwd, /etc/hosts
