CentOS 7 Allow User to Run Any Commands Anywhere (visudo)
In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to provide permission to run any commands (sudo commands too) anywhere. Let’s start.
To provide permission to run any commands, we need to do it from visudo file. Run this command to open the sudo configuration file:
visudoNow search for these two lines:
## Same thing without a password
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALLAfter those two lines, add this line:
apache ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALLReplace apache with your desired username. After adding that line, it should look like this:
## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
%wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
## Same thing without a password
# %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
apache ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALLWe have completed all the tasks. Now restart your webserver.
# Apache
sudo systemctl restart httpd
# Nginx
sudo systemctl restart nginx Now the user can run any commands anywhere like the root user. Thanks for reading.
