Stuck in Nano
-
I have been watching the videos on how to set up my VPS and am having a ridiculously irritating problem.
I get up to the point of changing privileges for the user I created and I simply cannot exit from editing the sudo file back to being able to type new commands. In your video you say to use control and semi colon but this does not work therefore I cannot save the file and proceed.
Anyone have any recommendations?

if you can't type new commands - it sounds to me like you left the terminal window up too long without any activity and somehow the terminal timed out - happens to me all the time. CTRL-X should close the file in NANO. VIM is :q! to close without saving. :w and then :q to save before closing in VIM. Maybe you are using VIM instead of NANO?
