User and Sudo passwords
#1
When installing i was asked to create a username and password.
this same password also became the password for sudo
is there anyway to change the password for sudo so it is different to my username password? (i would prefer to keep the password for the username and have a different password for sudo)

Looking at the manual i'm thinking i could create a new 'sudo' user, give it sudo group access, then remove my user from sudo group access. This way i will have a new password for sudo that's diff from my user password. Is this the best way of accomplishing this?

Cheers
Daniel
