Administering

8. 8. Getting Admin Power

   Last How to Get the Admin Super-Powers.

   To Login as SuperUser:

   sudo su

   Especially relevant: take care because with the Admin Login you can Delete Anything and so your System may be in a Harm!
   If Got “User is Not in Sudoers file” then see: How to Enable sudo
   Then to Logout:

   exit

   To Protect your System from the potential Damage of an Hazardous Crazy Command Execution the Logout should be executed every Time your Setup is Achieved!
   Finally, to Execute a Single Command as SuperUser:

   sudo su -c 'myCommand'

   Or:

   sudo myCommand

   So for instance to List the Protected root Directory try to run:

   sudo ls /root
