sudo without password
(2017-05-30)
Problem
I don't want to get prompted for sudo access.
Solution
-
Run visudo
-
At the end of the file, add:
myusername ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
For some reason it doesn't work if you add it before the end of the file.
(Learned, later: the last definition for something seems to be the one that is applied; so my issue above was that the entry for myusername was being over-ridden by something in one of the gratuitous #includes in the file.)
