Trust Mr. Martin and myself -- it is a great tool to use. It is relatively simple to setup, and even easier to teach someone to use. Pretty much instead of typing su - and then running your command, you use sudo nameofcommand, tell it your password, and you can runn that application as root. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
