Sudo (su “do”) allows a system administrator to give certain users (or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root while logging all commands and arguments
Sudo is supplied in source form and you need to compile it.
This isn’t difficult! Before doing so, you need to have installed the g(un)zip program and a C compiler.
