Talk:Conary:New Package Tutorial
From rPath Wiki
The tutorial page includes an admonishment to use sudo. Fine, I added myself to /etc/sudoers by copy/pasting the entry for root and editing in my user name. Probably not a good idea. I don't have the time/interest/inclination to wade through the sudoers man page to figure out a kosher entry. Can anyone suggest one?

- Greg, to give newly created users sudo access, add them to the wheel group. This group has the standard, recommended access by default. You'll need to add them as root (I recommend logging in and typing 'visudo' to view the sudoers file anytime). To add users to groups, look into the groupadd command (More here. After adding your current user to the wheel group you should be able to use sudo as the tutorial suggests. --DerrickDevine 09:52, 5 July 2007 (EDT)
