Unable to add new admin user
« on: November 29, 2012, 09:37:10 pm »
Hello, I am using Zentyal 3.0. I have added a new user with the Zentyal console, and now I am trying to give that user access to the Zentyal console. I have tried adding the user to the sudo group and the adm group. I have tried creating the admin group and adding the new user to that group. I have tried adding the new user to /etc/sudoers. I have tried enabling PAM for all Zentyal users. However, I always get an "Invalid Password" message when trying to login to the console as the new user. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I confess, I'm not familiar with Zentyal. Using Ubuntu it is simple to add the user to the group "sudo"
Code: [Select]
useradd -G sudo usernameor
Code: [Select]
usermod -aG sudo username
