    Step 1: Server Credentials

This assumes you are now connected to the server via SSH.

sudo -s Enter root mode for admin access
groupadd devgroup Create new group to be later granted access to /var/www/html

Creating a new Root User


useradd -G root,devgroup masterdev Create new root user. Also add to the devgroup
passwd masterdev Change password for the new root user
At this point, you'll need to input your new root user's new password

Further User Configuration

Next, we'll need to set PasswordAuthentication to On. By default, passwords cannot be used on SSH (Off), so you initially need to use the pem or ppk files. However, since we now have created our new root user, we can change this and set it to "On".

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config Edit SSH config file
Make sure this is set: PasswordAuthentication yes
service sshd restart

Add as sudoer


vi /etc/sudoers Edit the sudoers file
Add masterdev user after the root's line

root ALL=(ALL) ALL
masterdev ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL


Since the sudoer file is read-only, you may need to save your changes using :wq!.
