Try Google with sudo tutorial debian In Debian, you can do this the quick and (very) dirty way, by effectively making yourself root after the entry of your user password: https://wiki.debian.org/sudo This is fine for a one-user home computer that's not likely to attract the attention of serious human hackers. Or you can do it the 'proper' way, by defining what commands you want to run, and creating /etc/sudoers (better, new files in /etc/sudoers.d) entries to suit using the visudo program as root. This is harder, and requires you to know in advance what you want to do as root, but the correct way with multiple users with varying duties, and/or a business environment. -- Joe
