This guide will let you create a new (sudo) user on a Linux system.
1. Create a new user:
adduser <name>
Fill in the password and details as prompted.
2. Add the user to the sudo group:
usermod -aG sudo <name>
3. Verify sudo access:
su - <name>
sudo whoami
If the output is root, the user has sudo access.
