"'Username' is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported"

After logging into ssh in a Linux machine, I got this message:

'Username' is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

How can I resolve this? I'm connecting ssh to my virtual private server.

I need to have sudoers privilegies.

Solution

  • Open file

    su root 
nano /etc/sudoers

    Then add the user below admin user like below syntax.

    user_name ALL=(ALL)  ALL
