I am trying to get root access on a webserver using:
sudo login root
but I get:
sudo: no tty present and no askpass program specified
I also don’t have permission to the sudoers file. How can I proceed?
If you are in the sudoer file, which it seems like you are not.
If you know the root password
If you have neither of these, the admin obviously doesn’t want you to have root access.
