Explain what happens

I am using cockpit in a YOCTO enviorment. currently I am able to login with root permission and have all capabilies. I have created another user in my system and gave him permissons to the following gruops:

groups user root adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev user

also added the username to the sudowers file

still when I login with this user I see on top message "limited access" what do I need to do to have full capability for a user which is not root ?

see below print from log message:

Nov 3 07:43:24 imx8mn-ddr4-evk-target1 authpriv.alert sudo: tigogateway : a password is required ; PWD=/run/user/1200 ; USER=root ; COMMAND=validate Nov 3 07:43:24 imx8mn-ddr4-evk-target1 daemon.info dbus-daemon[211]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.hostname1' Nov 3 07:44:03 imx8mn-ddr4-evk-target1 authpriv.alert sudo: tigogateway : a password is required ; PWD=/run/user/1200 ; USER=root ; COMMAND=validate

the last message arrived when trying to click "Turn on administrative access" button

Are you building cockpit 220? That's a really old release from more then two years ago. I'd advice to try the latest release, but that might not fix your issue.

@Razriel3 this is a known limitation in cockpit. We hide parts of the UI if the logged in users is not logged in with the superuser mode. See this is already reported in a similar way here: https://github.com/cockpit-project/cockpit/issues/17346
