How to make an oradinary user as a root user
« on: November 23, 2005, 10:33:34 AM »
I am having one user name oracle.

I want to pass all the permissions and rights to this user.
All the rights as root is having.
or I want to make this user as good as root.

Please write the correct procedure to do so.

Thanks

hmm....can't understand why this is needed, but....you can change the user id to 0.

In /etc/passwd change the id of oracle to 0.


cheers,

Other  way is  to  add this  user to  Sudoers    vi  /etc/sudoers

and  add the  line  under the    root   line  with     user   ALL=(ALL)
