Problem to "sudo yum"

Hi,
I have got these
[huamin@CentOS65x64 ~]$ sudo yum install httpd

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.

[sudo] password for huamin:
huamin is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.

within CentOS. How to resolve it?

redhat by default dose NOT use "sudo"

it uses "su" and "su -"

if you want to use "sudo" and understand the security RISKS!!! you have to set up "sudo"

but the BEST way on rhel is to install the package group for Apache

Code:

su -
--- type in the root password when asked for ---
yum grouplist 
---- then from that long list ---
yum groupinstall " Web Server"

double check the name it Should be listed as "web server"

but as to setting up Apache
it is a very COMPLEX bit of software

i do recommend that people BUILD from source and manually install everything needed 6 to 12 times
before using a rpm or deb install
Apache 2.4
php
MiraDB ( replaced Mysql )
phpMyAdmin
AWstats
and so on
