    7/8: Got errors with ipkg upgrade for several packages without using root. Probably got to do with different user path statements but I didn't troubleshoot that much. Found it worked straight away with root. If you upgrade sudo ipkg, it doesn't actually keep admin in the sudoers file. Try it because then if you are following the instructions and don't know root works you get stuck.

    10. Wasn't sure about the patch. Twonky wouldn't start without changed LD_LIBRARY_PATH as stated in http://www.wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=7945 as twonky wants something in the default asus lib path.
    Regarding...

    #6, Yes vi is included in /opt/bin.

    #7/#8, We're saying the same thing... I assumed everyone would know that adding packages was a "root" level operation.

    The reason sudo works from the admin account is because I put admin in the root group at startup with the /opt/etc/init.kc/fix_group.sh script.

    However, I see the potential problem if this line is commented out:

    %root ALL=(ALL) SETENV: ALL)

    after upgrading sudo.

    Didn't ipkg ask you if you wanted to keep your existing /opt/etc/sudoers file when you upgraded? Maybe this belongs in the FAQ.

    #10, OK.

    Sorry, but I got the following:
    Code:
    login as: erop
    erop@192.168.1.1's password:
    [erop@WL700gE /]$ sudo bash -l
    
    We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
    Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
    
        #1) Respect the privacy of others.
        #2) Think before you type.
        #3) With great power comes great responsibility.
    
    Password:
    erop is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
    [erop@WL700gE /]$
    As you see I can't "sudo from the admin account to root". (erop is my admin account). Where am I wrong?

    As usual the solution is just one search away:
