Let me add a disclaimer at the beginning of this: I do not know why this
person wants to do this, and I have already advised them that it is not
the safest course of action.
But anyway.
They want to set up their user login on their home *nix machine so that
they have root privileges. I have never done this and I've never had a
need for it, but I imagine there's a way to do it. What is that way?
Sláinte,

"I really didn't realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous
group. They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at the
desk, all quiet and everything. They're like plotting the revolution, man.
I wouldn't mess with them."
--Michael Moore
