Hi; I can't get the following script (or various variations thereof) to work. There must be something simple I have missed. I have yelped, gnomed and googled. #! /bin/bash # Open nautilus as root from user account # file name: RootBrowse sudo -K if zenity --entry \ --title="Browse files as root" \ --text="Enter your user _password:" \ --entry-text "" \ --hide-text then $1 | sudo nautilus --no-desktop --browser \ 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null else zenity --error --text="Sorry, wrong password"; exit 1 fi # End There is a similar script on http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ but it requires gksudo. I am using Fedora 8 and it does not include gksudo. Don't take the above shown script too literally. It is just my latest of a long series of attempts to get this working. Any help, advice or explanations will be gratefully received. -- Regards Bill _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
