Restrictions on sudo group users quandary

Webmin
1
SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version ubuntu 20.04.5
Webmin version 2.020

With Webmin a sudo group user cannot change permissions using the Webmin GUI, but CAN use the GUI to put themselves in the ‘root’ group! ( this what I found – correct?)

This is handy but it appears to defeat the purpose of the GUI limitation on permission changes?

@oliver_reid,

If you want to make a secondary user with Admin privileges in Webmin, create a Webmin user and give them.them the appropriate permissions.
