Edit sudoers file with command visudo:
$ visudo
You should get something similar to this content:
# # This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root. # # Please consider adding local content in /etc/sudoers.d/ instead of # directly modifying this file. # # See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file. # Defaults env_reset Defaults mail_badpass Defaults secure_path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin" # Host alias specification # User alias specification # Cmnd alias specification # User privilege specification root ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL # Members of the admin group may gain root privileges %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL # Allow members of group sudo to execute any command %sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL # See sudoers(5) for more information on "#include" directives: #includedir /etc/sudoers.d
Step 2
Find %sudo entry, and and update last part of ALL:
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL
Step 3
Now add your user to the sudo group:
$ usermod -a -G sudo {your_user_name}
Exit and re-login to the shell. Now you can use:
$ sudo su -
