How to Run sudo Command Without Entering a Password in Linux
============================================================
In case you are running Linux on a machine that you normally use alone, say on a laptop, entering a password each time you invoke **sudo** can become so boring in the long run. Therefore, in this guide, we will describe [how to configure sudo command][4] to run without entering a password.
This setting is done in the **/etc/sudoers** file, which drives sudoers to use default security policy plugin for the [sudo command][5]; under the user privilege specification section.
**Important**: In the **sudeors** file, the authenticate parameter which is turned on by default is used for authentication purposes. If it is set, users must authenticate themselves via a password (or other means of authentication) before they run commands with **sudo**.
However, this default value may be overridden using the **NOPASSWD** (require no password when user invokes **sudo** command) tag.
The syntax to configure user privileges is as follows:
```
user_list host_list=effective_user_list tag_list command_list
```
Where:
1. `user_list`  list of users or a user alias that has already been set.
2. `host_list`  list of hosts or a host alias on which users can run sudo.
3. `effective_user_list`  list of users they must be running as or a run as alias.
4. `tag_list`  list of tags such as NOPASSWD.
5. `command_list`  list of commands or a command alias to be run by user(s) using sudo.
To allow a user (`aaronkilik` in the example below) to run all commands using **sudo** without a password, open the **sudoers** file:
```
$ sudo visudo
```
And add the following line:
```
aaronkilik ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
```
For the case of a group, use the `%` character before the group name as follows; this means that all member of the `sys` group will run all commands using sudo without a password.
```
%sys ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
```
To permit a user to run a given command (`/bin/kill`) using sudo without a password, add the following line:
```
aaronkilik ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/kill
```
The line below will enable member of the `sys` group to run the commands: **/bin/kill**, **/bin/rm**using **sudo** without a password:
```
%sys ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /bin/kill, /bin/rm
```
