   No information.   
   HOw do you "add myuserid to sudo"? Ie, what is the exact command you   
   use?   
   YOu say you "get "Error.."" what does that mean? What did you do to   
   get that statement.   
   Note that the /etc/sudoers file is writeable ONLY by root. Do you have   
   root permission on your machine? Are you running as root when you try to   
   write the file?
