 dont forget to add your user(s) to some group(s) ... depends on your needs ... here's "my" config
 
 root@your_machine:/etc# grep your_user group
 wheel:x:4:your_user
 floppy:x:8:your_user
 dialout:x:11:your_user
 audio:x:12:pulse,your_user
 video:x:13:your_user
 cdrom:x:16:your_user
 scanner:x:20:your_user
 network:x:21:your_user
 kvm:x:24:your_user
 users:x:100:your_user
 pulse-access:x:997:your_user
 your_user:x:1000:
 wireshark:x:992:your_user
 clamav:x:991:your_user
 socklog:x:989:your_user
 
 if you want to use sudo, the you also have to change sudoers (visudo) ... i use the group "wheel" for it ... but mostly "sudo" ist used for 
 
 ....
 ##
 ## User privilege specification
 ##
 root ALL=(ALL) ALL
 
 ## Uncomment to allow members of group wheel to execute any command
 %wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
 
 ## Same thing without a password
 # %wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
 
 ## Uncomment to allow members of group sudo to execute any command
 # %sudo	ALL=(ALL) ALL
