Question No sudo access in bash ssh shell

sdlx

New Pleskian
Hey All,

Newbie question here. Running Plesk onyx (also had this problem on 12.x) on a ubuntu server 14.04

After adding a domain - I allow ssh access (either /bin/bash & /bin/bash chrooted), and when I ssh in I cannot sudo - I get permission denied, not member of sudoers group.

What am I missing here ? I am clearly overlooking something obvious, but I cant figure it out.

Any help appreciated. thanks.
 
Add the system user to the sudo group:

# usermod -a -G sudo username
