[[concept-using-sudo-without-password]] = Using sudo without a password You can enable `root` access without a password specified, allowing any process on your system to become `root`. Add the following line to your `/etc/sudoers` file: ------------ _user_ ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/docker ------------ This will allow _user_ to access docker without a password. IMPORTANT: For security reasons, it is recommended that you always use *sudo* with a password.
