Thread: when i type 'Sudo su' - "User not in the sudoers file.This incident will be reported"

-

hi all,

new ubuntu 12.10, facing 2 basic problems,

1.when type 'sudo su' in command prompt, getting error message "user not in sudoers file.this incident reported"
2. when type 'visudo' getting "visudo: etc/sududoersermission denied"

tried lot of things solve issue not succesfull

please me out in issue?

regards,
vishwa

understanding new ubuntu, makes think need either 1 of things? commands not used on ubuntu system, experienced users. "sudo" have needed root privilege operation on system.

errors both attributable mis-match between user name , given password. when ubuntu, installed, installing user gave password -- password on system alow "sudo" operation, including opening visudo change passwords. if don't know original password given during installation, not able execute "sudo" privileged command.
