Hi, I got the problem with the sudo. I already in the sudo list but I have no permission to sudo su , so that Is there anywhere I can break the sudo without root password to become root?
Not to imply anything, but do you know the root password? sudo cannot, AFAIK, be "hacked" (I use the term loosely) to not prompt for a root password without editing the actual program - remember, this is AFAIK and is in no way definitive.

Your help is appreciated and thanks
From what your implying, you are not root on this machine and your trying to break into this machine to gain access that clearly wasn't given to you for a reason.
If this is your machine however, read the man page and edit your sudoers file to give your user account the proper access, if not, well, don't ask others to perform illegal activities for you which is clearly against our rules on this site.
