Bro, how to save and exit the editor?

me file not existe for root

Thank you. Fixed my problem. All fine.

Re: "adduser [username] sudo". Edited following discussion below. It works in Debian 12 if you log in as root on a separate command line terminal. (From the user desktop: Ctrl-Alt-[F?] depends what terminal your desktop is on but find a free one.) Or from a desktop user terminal "su - root"/password. The "- root" bit is important. If user does su without it he gets a "root" account with adduser disabled. root can also use "usermod" to achieve same thing. I still think hand editing etc/sudoers will be harder and more error prone.

This is how tutorials should be not talking bullshite for several minutes but instead straight to the point.

thanks. The hardest part was to find the copy key combination in nano :)
