NodeBB Installation Tutorial Question

[jimmyc2018]

I'm following the official installation tutorial @: https://docs.nodebb.org/installing/os/ubuntu/

I'm stuck at: "Enable database authorization in the MongoDB configuration file /etc/mongod.conf by uncommenting the line security and enabling authorization:"

I COPIED THIS PERFECTLY:

security:
authorization: enabled

I hit ENTER, and get this:

root@bank:~# security:
security:: command not found
root@bank:~# authorization: enabled
authorization:: command not found
root@bank:~# security:
security:: command not found
root@bank:~# security:
security:: command not found
root@bank:~# authorization: enabled

I tried it several times.

I posted this question over at github

And was told:

"No, you have to edit the file /etc/mongod.conf."

Well how exactly do I do that now?

If you don't know how to edit files from the command line you're gonna have a hard time.

Anyways you can use nano to do it:

sudo nano /etc/mongod.conf
