  • Please run man sudo to learn how sudo works. -u let you run a command as other user, in this case "flowvisor". Please provide more information about the steps you are following.

  • Please update your post (read about Markdown syntax) with the info (better if you can provide an official flowvisor link) about the steps you are following. You are getting that error because user flowvisor doesn't exist (getent passwd | grep flowvisor will not return any line).
