Debian Server Fresh Installation Possible Issues

Error/Issue - sudo: command not found Description - Unable to install package by using sudo Solution - Install sudo by running su - then apt install sudo

Assuming that you added a root passwd the user the installation asks you to create will not be in the sudo group, to fix it, do the following

su - # This will put you as root, it will also ask you for the root passwd

apt install sudo # Install sudo package

adduser username sudo # Adds user to sudo group

reboot # You might need to reboot the server

Error/Issue - name_of_host name or service not known Description - Unable to add /etc/apt/keyrings when attempting to install docker Solution - Add hostname to /etc/hosts usually it is the 3rd line. Both hostname and /etc/hosts needs to match
