I've installed GNOME on my CentOS 6.8 server, i log in via NOMACHINE NX software from windows. Even if i use my normal user and password when i log in i'm root. I don't want to be root. I must have made some change on the linux config to get this behavior. I know i added my user to groups like "admin", "root", and "wheel" before because i was tired of being asked the password all the time. I edited sudoers and uncommented
%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
But at some point i realized i wasn't my user anymore, even if i logged in with my credentials i was always root. Now i'm trying to get back as a normal users and i can't.
I commented back sudoers. My sudoers.d is empty.
I've removed all groups from my user except the user group.
I tried sudo su
via ssh and i get:
user is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.
I don't understand what else can i do to log in as normal user on GNOME?

grep <your-username> /etc/passwd
and add that output to your question.grep root /etc/passwd
? I would also look in /var/log/secure for clues. Maybe something in your~/.bashrc
or~/.bash_profile
(or/etc/bashrc
and other system wide profile files) is executing asu
orsudo
. The root account does have a password, correct?
