1-)After installing sudser
i'm able to sudo (anything will be started as root) with out sudo gainroot
then entering commands
so the progblem here is
when i gain the root shell
sudo gainroot

then i type
sudo (anything)

i get
root is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

Is that normal?
Don't sudo as root. Root does everything sudo

you use sudo as user. Like
sudo cp file.txt /opt/

^^copies file.txt top /opt/ and you can do it without becoming root with sudo gainroot (or just root)

EDIT Thanks for the info on the package btw, I hadn't bother to fix it myself, and I was a little annoyed by the sudo thing actually. didn't know there was an app for it

EDIT2: root is an alias for sudo gainroot, and quite a bit shorter
