Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d Warning
Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d Warning
Hello community,
as beginner I installed debian 9 minimalist version w/ root pwd enabled.
I was missing non-free firmware on install "rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw" and sudo was also missing ofc, I read that.
The Sudo manual didn't help me out there.
Then at terminal the two provided ppa non-free sources for missing firmware would download, BUT couldn't or didn't successfully install for some reason, I don't remember the error....
After that, I changed the sources.list and updated && installed any and all untrusted non-free packages from all non-free sources.list making sudo install possible now and adding the missing firmware with lots and lots and lots of other firmware unneccesaryIy. Removed the non-free ending again and updated & installed again. First Q. to you geeks out there, how could I have added just that one firmware package from the available sources.list? then I added the guest to the sudo group.... and here is where my next problem starts as noob:
The guest account has sudo privileges w/o password and I want to have it to have to use pwd.
The sudeors.d directive is something new for me, please help me, I'm receiving a warning when editing/creating out via:
sudo visudo -f visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/somefilename.
Then into that new file I rwote just one line
#includedir /etc/sudoers.d
and quitting visudo warns me sth translated like:
"too may same switched rows/lines in line >>>>O". ??? What's that mean? Ps: "Gleichgeschaltete Reihen" or sth like that in german.
I didn't save because I knew from threads it's touchy and If I had messed up, I would have had to resurrect it from liveboot.
So, many question, I hope you can answer me, should I just reinstall and forget about guests and sudo on debian as minmal install for a server and just use su? Or is it a HUUUGE timeout for root privis for guest?, after typing pwd once? Just to avoid it alltogether? or delete the guest account with too much sudo privileges?
Or how would you change the sudoers.d or whatever there is, to remove privis from guest as root and giving him only access with root pwd. I would use the manual for edit the lines for privileges in sudoersfile but as mentioned in my minimalist debian 9 it's non existend in etc/sudoers.d, and upon editing\creating sudoers in sudoers.d. I recieve warnings. What is your recommendation for me to do?

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
Wow. Not sure I grok all of that, but okay...
All that should be required to install non-free firmware is adding "non-free" to the appropriate line(s) in sources.list.
If you're sure no password is required, post yours for inspection.
If what you really want is root privileges to install stuff, I suggest you climb back out of this rathole and just use "su", it's a lot simpler.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
steve_v just posted as I was writing but I'll post it anyway.
Sounds like you are heading for a broken system. Don't install stuff from external repos especially ppas. Often they may work but also may break everything. Read this - https://wiki.debian.org/DontBreakDebian
For that firmware, it probably just needs the firmware-realtek package. You said you installed all packages from non-free. You only needed one.
As for sudo, some people use it but it's not essential especially on a single user system. I don't use it as su works fine.
Before you break anything else, install inxi and post the output from which will show us which repositories are active. Also post your sudoers file.
There may still be hope.

Yeah, that's what happened when I added "non-free" in the sources.list lines, but only needed this rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw but opening terminal to su apt-get-repository ppa.x.non-free after editing sources.list, it failed to install it iirc.

I've dug out rabbitholes many, so deep, you'd need a parachute to visit me there. And to create a website to inform others about rabbit holes, also I have have to dig out virtual ratholes! Oi oi oi. No one told me that beforehand. Just mentioning that sth small like this stops me in my tracks.... But thank you steve, good conversation, but I still have the questions as above, why no sudoers file in sudoers.d and how to just mske without crashing or loosing ALL root access?
Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
Also, what editor do you use to read the README in sudoers.d? When open it with vi or nano or visudo it just shows lots of LINES only content ~

~
~

and so on...
the sudoers.d is also empty i guess? It looks Just like the README when trying to edit with su root.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
Hello sunrat, Thank you for your constructive comment and warning of broking my system, that's really where I messed up, because I wasn't able to choose a specific package from the available sources.list. rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw Seeking help the community now, as I learn. I'm not as advanced as you are so I can't ssh into my machine and copy paste the output of your command, sorry. I plan to reinstall without a guest, with root pwd enabled. Edit then edit the sources.list with su for stretch distro and somehow I need to find a way to just install the missing firmware there. I thank steve for supplying me with the debian realtek firmware packages site. God willing, I will get this thing running and keep you update about the progress. Give me some time to reinstall. I'l try your command sunrat. Thanks.sunrat wrote:steve_v just posted as I was writing but I'll post it anyway.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
So are you using Debian or are you using Linux Mint? There is huge difference. Using Mint would explain why you're talking about PPAs.Came from LMint, and it was advertised in the installation?, also recommended.
You need root privileges to see the content. By default, it has some commented out information on sudoers.d. If you are root and still don't see the content when opening the file, the chances are you have replaced the file with an empty file with same name.Also, what editor do you use to read the README in sudoers.d? When open it with vi or nano or visudo it just shows lots of LINES only content
Your explanation is very confusing. While not your main problem, if you want an insight on your sources.list please provide us the output for:Yeah, that's what happened when I added "non-free" in the sources.list lines, but only needed this rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw but opening terminal to su apt-get-repository ppa.x.non-free after editing sources.list, it failed to install it iirc. I'm clueless why.
Code: Select all
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
The file etc/sudoers is doesn't exist in my distro, but only the README
Because sudoers file is not in the sudoers.d -folder. Again, you need root privileges to access the file. If you have sudo package installed and don't have the file, sounds pretty messed up to me. As root, issue following command:why no sudoers file in sudoers.d
Code: Select all
cat /etc/sudoers
You can use whatever you're the most comfortable with.Also, what editor do you use to read the README in sudoers.d?

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
I think a fresh install is the least painful way to clean this up. It seems you tried to do some things in Debian the way you learned to do them in Mint and it's taken you the long way around the barn.
Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
The target is debian yes. Thank you for your comment and help, I have reinstalled since then, because the commentors here who helped me so far, are right, suggesting a reinstall. But the Problem with the missing firmware-data named rtl_nic/rt18168d-1.fw persists in my fresh minimalist install of debian 9/stretch for me right now. I'm still seeking your help. I have a few ideas but need your pro guidance. Will post details about problem in next below. Tanks everyone for your attention to my problem here, I hope we'll figure this out. Details coming below... -antoniuskopper wrote:So are you using Debian or are you using Linux Mint? There is huge difference.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
Hello again everyone,
Debian 9/stretch minimalist version is installed, root enabled, no guest, and sudo isn't installed, I ingore it now.
Fine, but that firmware rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw is still missing. We have to fix this, I kindly ask YOU how for help?
After boot, I edited /scources.list as root as described in wiki.debian-article for update purposes,
Like:
etc..., 6 Lines in total.
Obv you know what this is. I think you all agree that's OK. And that it doesn't contain the missing non-free data for one needed firmware.
I apt-get updated & installed
AGAIN, I received at the end a report of warnigns W: N: (notes???) E(?): and saying that "Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use."
I ignore this for now... for the sake of finding the firmware.
But, additionally I also # commented the upper "cdrom" Line in /sources.list. So it stops asking. NOTHING FANCY really to me even as beginner.
Now to the Problem with this: rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw As steve_v pointed out with a Link https://packages.debian.org/stretch/all ... k/filelist
Sadly, it doesn't contain this specific file rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw it's not there available!
A shot in the blue?
So here's what I typed by hand in terminal before update & instal all the non-free PPAs , which was a mistake I know...:
from search engine: rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw PPA didn't work out: https://launchpad.net/~chasedouglas/+ar ... x-firmware
There was an ERROR after processing. It doesn't work. Are there depenencies missing on my debian 9 to install it, this would be my guess?
What needs to be done here?, or transefered per USB-flashdrive, or mounted or dependancies installed to successfully install rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw from mentioned non-free PPAs?
Basicly I'm not stopped here because ethernet seems to work, But is this essential for a wroking server? the ethernet/internet works with the machine so far? If someone could help me with this please, or tell me if I should leave it at that? I appreaciate your help and insight. Looking forward to your comments.

I made a search on https://packages.debian.org/search?suit ... 1816d-1.fw for rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw with no results. So the PPA has to come from "non-free" sources... I guess I'll try to run debian 9 without this firmware. And hope the ethernet server will work. What do you think? Thank you.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
If you want this fixed, it would help to follow advice and give information requested.
DO NOT use PPAs, they are for Ubuntu based distros like Mint.
You say your missing firmware is rtl_nic/rt1816d-1.fw . You sure it isn't rtl8168d-1? That is included in firmware-realtek from Debian non-free repo. I'm thinking your sources are still wrong if you can't install this. As requested before, post your whole sources.list file here. One line of 6 is not helpful.
inxi is available in the main repo. https://packages.debian.org/stretch/inxi . It is a system info utility which can tell you lots about your system and hardware which can be vital to troubleshoot your issues. If you can't install this, your sources are definitely wrong, or perhaps you didn't run apt-get update to refresh your package list.

Re: Guest account has sudo privileges w/o pwd, sudoers.d War
Are you sure the installation was OK? Seems to me you have a bare-bones install without pre-configured repositories. The only way you could have gotten that is if you installed from netinstall image without successfully connecting to the Internet. Now, you have a few choices.
1. Reinstall from one of these: https://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/#stable
Just be sure to select your correct architecture. Later you can add non-free to the repo list fallowing instructions from https://wiki.debian.org/SourcesList
2. Try to copy the examples from mentioned wiki page to your broken install. Just use nano under root to add exact repo lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file.
After that, making sure you have an internet ethernet cable connected, run
as root to make sure you changed the repos. Then, if it works, try
to fix your broken Debian.
