[Sheena_thakkar]

Hi Expertise of the Linux operating system, here is one question for you people which is the problem of my Linux Operating system.

Every time my terminal show the message that
bash: visudo : command not found

Is this message will affect my system or its nothing to do with my system i am little worried about this message.

ListenYou have to get the super user access by typing "su" to log in as root and to inherit the root path you have to use "-" with "su" command i.e. "su -".
visudo was in /usr/sbin which is not in the typical path in order to access the visudo command. Most distributions do not put the */sbin directories in a normal users path, so if you want to run commands in these directories, use the full path name or switch to root using "su -" and not just "su".

enjoy........

Hello,

Try this out

You have to be in root so try to log in as root and enter the visudo command.
This will help you to enable to add your main user to the sudoers file and don't add it yourself by hand, use the visudo command.

Hi,

If you are getting problem with the 'visudo' command is not found, you will have to install sudo as VPS images:

aptitude install sudo

After your installation is over try the 'visudo' command again. Now you will not face the same problem again.

Bye.........
