Configure Sudo & Meaning

Language is Case Sensitive SO Better Watch Each And Every Word or Better copy From Here and Paste in the Terminal. :)

Defination :-

sudo means “super user do”. Only users that are in the admin group listed in /etc/group have the ability to use sudo to do root activities by default. sudo performs the actions as root.

su means “switch user”. You can use it so switch to any user.

I think that the time limit for sudo is 10 minutes of inactivity before it will ask for your password again.

:)

Now Configure :-

Go to Application ->System Tools->Terminal

[Puneet@localhost ~]$ su -

Password: ->Write Your Password

Hit Enter ->

[root@localhost ~]# echo ‘loginname ALL=(ALL) ALL’ >> /etc/sudoers

:-if u Don’t Want Password to Be Prompted.

or

[root@localhost ~]# echo ‘loginname ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL’ >> /etc/sudoers

:-if you don’t want to be prompted a password.

loginname is Your Name of localhost other than root well it is not case sensitive :)

The First commond is Recommended for The security Reasons.

It is Only an alternative of sudo in Place of su in the Terminal.

It is optional for u ,you can directly yum commands from your root.

Now you can Install an Application Using sudo as a Local Host or Directly by the Help of Yum from the Root.

How to Partition Hard Disk Tutorial Extras:

 

 

 

I have Given Dual Boot Partitions earlier :)

If you have an empty hard drive or wish to delete the entire contents of your drive, then let the installer automatically partition or remove everything and partition.

If you wish to dual-boot or save some contents on your drive, then select custom Layout partitioning. I recommend at least 3 partitions of Free Space :

1) 10GB / main partition,

2) 10GB /home partition

3)About 1GB <swap> partition.

4)/boot Partition 1 GB

/ Partition is the main partition is where your applications will be installed.

The /home partition will hold all your personal data (larger is better).

The <swap> should be at least as large as your physical memory (if you wish to support things like ACPI hibernate).

/boot is Used For Booting

 

Boot Loader

If you have a blank hard Drive or wish Fedora to be your Primary Operating System, then leave the default options here. This also works for dual booting with other systems (ex: Windows).

If you wish to preserve Windows as your primary operating system, then install Grub on the / partition, NOT the MBR. To do this, select Configure Advanced Boot Loader Options and install to First sector of boot partition. I use Bootpart from Windows 2000/XP to load Linux .:)

Network Setup

The networking options will default to dynamically configure the network using DHCP. This will work for most high speed internet users.

NOTE: IPv6 – If you select Edit under Network Devices you can disable IPv6 for Fedora. This should not be necessary, however it may be helpful to disable here and re-enable later if you know you have problems with IPv6.

:)

Thanx :)
