Ubuntu Server with GNOME Desktop Envinronment - Setting Apatche configuration File Permissions

Ubuntu Server with GNOME Desktop Envinronment - Setting Apatche configuration File Permissions I've installed Ubuntu Server in to a VirtualBox virtual machine. I've been able to get the GNOME desktop environment setup on it (The default Ubuntu version). This is an educational LAMP server, so I'm not concerned about the performance cost.

"You can run a root file browser with gksudo nautilus.

This will allow you to either open the file as root (recommended) or change the permissions under the properties menu."

"As you have already recognized is the sudo command used to execute commands with the rights of other users. The default user which sudo uses if you don't specify another one is the root user.

Just use sudo vim /etc/apache2/sites-available to modify the file as root."
