# 6. Modifying "sudoers" \[optional]

If you are using Key9 for privileged access management, you'll want to configure sudo to use a Key9 group. In our example, within the Key9 web interface, we've created a group named `k9sudo`. Users who are members of this group will be able to become "root" on the system. This allows for centralized management of "root" users.   As root,  execute the following command.   Replace the example k9sudo with the name of your privilege group. 

`echo "%k9sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" > /etc/sudoers.d/k9sudo`
