Ajit Gunge · 06-18-2012, 05:55 AM

Hi All,
I had edited my .bashrc file using the blog http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/bash-a...inux-unix.html.There is an alias vi=vim.Now when I am trying to edit any file it says vim command not found.Also to install vim when I run the command yum isntall -y vim it says

ajit is not into sudoers file.The incident will be reported.

Now I cannot edit by bashrc file.I cannot edit my sudoers file.Can someone tell me how can I edit my sudoers file.I cannot login as root.How do I get out of the situation.Please help.

you need to remove that alias, or use vi with full path. execute yum as root, not as normal user.
