Description Ryan Lane 2012-08-30 01:51:54 UTC 
It's annoying and slightly insecure to require passwords for sudo. We should allow passwordless sudo.
Comment 1 George Chriss 2012-09-23 18:53:53 UTC 
If passwordless sudos aren't enabled, how do account holders obtain root access to instances?  I don't have a valid password for the sudo password prompt w/ SSH-only access.

Your instance shell passwd is the same as your gerrit password is the same as your labsconsole password. (all is LDAP)

If that doesn't work then there's a different problem. (maybe sudo policies) Will troubleshoot with you on IRC.

Comment #2 works-for-me.  Additional comments in IRC.

This was done a while ago.
