No: "#" indicates a comment, i.e. that line is commented out. You'd have to remove the "#" (not the "%", though) to make it effective. The effect of that line is that users in the group sudo (group is indicated by the "%") can do everything root can do (they have to issue their password for that, though). Cheers - t
