Amazon EC2 prompt password when sudo

amazon-ec2

Solution 1:

Warning: Make sure to set the password for ec2-user before doing this

You need to modify the sudo settings to enable password authentication when using sudo. Run the visudo command as root (or sudo visudo) and look for a line like this:

ec2-user        ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: ALL

Remove the NOPASSWD: bit, so the line looks like this:

ec2-user        ALL=(ALL)       ALL

sudo will ask for a password next time you log on. Again, make sure to set your password before doing this!
