Hi All,

I want to execute the command "sudo su -" after login to the user account.How could i do this?

Type it in at the $ prompt.

If you mean you want to execute it automatically, it could be done but I would really question why you want to do this.

If you really want to do this just add it to your .profile file in your home directory.

1]You have to make sure that your name is present under /etc/sudoers file by root.

2] If user is present under sudoers file then,follow below steps,

Ex.Your name is test (normal user)

Passwd:xxxx

User is loged in

$sudo su - test

passwd:xxxx

$su -

Now you are superuser.
