      Could you not just use root to give your user sudo? Seems like a pretty dumb restriction

        Possibly but my role was such Im really only supposed to be working on my project and not monkey with the server which is used by other projects. I don’t think it was a restriction I think it was just laziness by whoever set it up.

          Fair enough. Got a colleague who sudo nanos everything then wonders why he keeps getting permission denied errors later lol
