i think wha dexter wanted was to remove sudo in the first place and make
his system like the old classic linux. remove sudo access for even
himself, and use the root password for his work. he's asking, if he
fires adept, will it recognise the lack of sudo and ask for the root
password, or will it not notice such thing, and asks for sudo password
(his own password) which will of course fail.
