It does? It never seemed to work for me, so I stopped using it. > For instance, I use synaptic to update my desktop machine.

For sudo, it's better to modify /etc/sudoers like mine: derek ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/aptitude, /sbin/ifconfig Which lets me use aptitude and ifconfig without ever giving a password. However, adding /usr/bin/kpackage to the list, and then invoking it with kdesu still prompts. -- derek -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
