Use sudo -k to forget your password and force a new authenticat

Have you checked to see if sudo is installed? I checked for the sudo
or sudoers man page. "man sudoers" on redhat biased systems with sudo
installed will give you syntax information. I did the check on a
debian system, only to find sudo not installed.

Well, Neil sets it straight again, nicely done :)
My make wheel & grunt advice is tongue-in-cheek, but I think you'll
find that this stuff does have to do with [security] hardening, so
even though many recent distros include it, it prolly hasn't gotten
into debian yet (or is in some meta-package).
1) My system allows everyone to become root. It's Debian Etch, btw.
2) The man page doesn't say anything about syntax... already checked.
3) Thanks, I'll use sudo -l.

IIRC, wheel was intended to match the GID on su, so that non-group
members cannot even become root, a hardening tactic that goes along
with disallowing any direct root logins.
Why not make wheel? You'll feel so evolved; groupadd wheel and grunt
with glee ;)

Why would I? I thought wheel was just an example group for within the
sudoers file. wheel doesn't even exist on my system.

Including that line (and none else regarding my user) makes it so I'm
not able to run any commands as sudo.
If I include both that line and the "martin ALL = (ALL) ALL" line, I am
able to run all commands without a password.

Should be able to run the above commands just like any other user

What should I put in my sudoers file so that I can run any command as if
I were root with a password and a few other commands as root without a
password?
Pretty much, I'd like to have full sudo access but be able to reboot and
poweroff my computer without a password.
Currently, I have:
