Then I went back and, as recommended, disabled root access via SSH. This is where I think I made my novice error, because when I SSH into the box now I can no longer 'sudo'. In fact I get the message:
<user> is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
This of course means I can't even shut the machine down remotely. Before I take a monitor and keyboard downstairs to it, is there a way I can get around this (after you've all had a good laugh of course!)?
Add the appropriate users to the sudoers file. /etc/sudoers
Or, as mine is configured, add the appropriate users to the admin group.
Good luck, Tim.
