for people who come here to look for a solution: @lucasmontec : sudo vim /etc/ajenti/config.yml (or whatever text editor you prefer) add: restricted_user: yourusername at the bottom of the file obviously save and exit sudo service ajenti restart

now elevate works on my Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.10 Release: 16.10 Codename: yakkety

Try editing /etc/ajenti/config.yml

There you should add a top-level option “restricted_user”, try setting it to a user who has sudo access

Quick question: I’ve got one restricted user, but how do I add multiple?

Cannot get it to work using this. Where should I put the config?

No resolution for this? Just installed on a fresh ubuntu 14.04 and am getting this. It keeps putting me back to the login screen now, and then adds on to the url. https://ipaddress:8000/view/login/sudo:administrator//view/dashboard

auth.log keeps showing :
