If I remember correctly, you need to set a password on your account, or
you cannot use sudo. The admin account does not have /opt/local/bin in
its path as the installer only adds that for the user running the
installation.

Either change the PATH for the admin account in their
.bash_profile/.bashrc or use the full path:

  sudo /opt/local/bin/port selfupdate
