Error when logging into chroot jail: "sudo: must be setuid root"
 

Hi,

I just finished following this tutorial to set up a simple chroot jail on my Ubuntu 12.04 server, and after following all the steps and trying to log in, I get the MOTD but right after that it displays this error message, and then the connection is closed:

I'm not sure what the issue is here, but if it matters, my /etc/group file did not have an admin line, so I just added this to the end of the file:

Does anyone know what I could have done wrong? I can provide more information if needed. Thanks!

try booting the ubuntu server in recovery mode (root prompt) and running chmod u+s on /usr/bin/sudo
if that fails, try doing it on the client machine.

Did that, and now I get this:

Ubuntu 12.04 has dropped the admin group. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePango...Infrastructure

Try to add 'jailuser' to the sudo group instead.

this is an easy fix. get to root, and type the following:

chmod 4111 /usr/bin/sudo
chown root:root /usr/bin/sudo

problem should be solved.

the permissions should look like this:
NOTE the s in the first part of the permissions.
