Introduction to ROOT: ROOT exists in UNIX systems (such as AIX, BSD, etc.) and UNIX-like systems (such as Debian, Redhat, Ubuntu versions of Linux systems and Android systems).

The superuser is generally named root, which is equivalent to the system user in Windows system.

Root is the only superuser in the system, with all the privileges in the system, such as starting or stopping a process, deleting or adding users, adding or disabling hardware, and so on.

The root user is the only super administrator on the system, and it has the same permissions as the operating system.

Some applications that require root permissions, such as ad blocking, require root permissions. The problem is that root is more capable than windows's system administrator to delete most of the files in the entire system, causing the system to be completely destroyed and cannot be used again.

Therefore, improper operation with root is quite dangerous, slightly can crash, serious even can not boot. Therefore, in Unix, Linux, and Android, root is generally not recommended unless it is really needed. It is best to set up an ordinary user separately for daily use.

Linux system switching root user method: (1) sudo command xzm@ubuntu:~$ sudo

In this way, you can get the permission of the superuser by entering the current administrator user password. But by default, root permissions are invalidated in 5 minutes.

(2) sudo-ixzm@ubuntu:~$ sudo-I

You can enter the root user by entering the password of the current administrator user in this way.

(3) if you want to use root permissions all the time, you need to switch to root users through su. Then we first need to reset the password of the root user:

Xzm@ubuntu:~$ sudo passwd root

This allows you to set the password for the root user.

(4) after that, you are free to switch to root users, xzm@ubuntu:~$ su.

Just enter the password of the root user.

Su "king" or exit returns to user rights

Add (set the root user password on the newly installed system):

$is an ordinary administrator, and # is a system administrator. Root users do not have a password by default, so they cannot use it (it is said to be for security). If you want to use root, you have to set a password for the root user: sudo passwd root, then enter the user name root when you log in, and then enter the password.
