type "man sudo" for instructions.

The editor to edit the /etc/sudoers file is "visudo". Not that's one word...don't do
"vi sudo"

I forgot to mention the /etc/sudoers file usually has examples in it. Worth a read.

exaple:

vi /etc/sudoers

User_Alias FULLTIMERS = millert, mikef, john
Host_Alias HPUX = sux*
Cmnd_Alias SU = /usr/bin/su
# on the alphas, john may su to anyone but root and flags are not allowed
FULLTIMERS HPUX = /usr/bin/su -

Hi,
For sudo access run

#/usr/local/bin/visudo
it will open the file /etc/sudoers into vi

username=/usr/bin/cancle

If you want same with no passwd then do like this


username=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/cancle

If you want to see how many command you can run with sudo then give sudo -l
/usr/bin/cancle
