    Laboratory Activity 4
    Introduction to Users - Using SUDO

    1. Run a command that displays only your currently logged on user name.

    2. Display a list of all logged on users.

    3. Display a list of all logged on users including the command they are running at this
    very moment.

    4. Display your user name and your unique user identification (userid).
    5. Use su to switch to another user account (unless you are root, you will need the
    password of the other account). And get back to the previous account.

    6. Now use su - to switch to another user and notice the difference. Note that su -
    gets you into the home directory of Tania.

    7. Try to create a new user account (when using your normal user account). this
    should fail. (Details on adding user accounts are explained in the next chapter.)

    8. Now try the same, but with sudo before your command.
