Create a New Sudo User

1. Log in to your server as the root user
2. Use the adduser command to add a new user to your system.
3. Use the usermod command to add the user to the wheel group.usermod -aG wheel username
4. By default, on CentOS, members of the wheel group have sudo privileges.
5. Test sudo access on new user account
   • Use the su command to switch to the new user account.su – username
   • As the new user, verify that you can use sudo by prepending “sudo” to the command that you want to run with superuser privileges.sudo command_to_run
   • For example, you can list the contents of the /root directory, which is normally only accessible to the root user.sudo ls -la /root
