I want to make my Debian system more Ubuntu-like, which means doing sudo or sudo-like system administration. However when I enter my user password to run update-manager every program in my Gnome menu that requires root-level privileges is authenticated. That is I can run without typing my password menu items like "Nmap (as root)" or "EtherApe (as root)". Other than having sudo time out after 1 second, is there a fix for this such that only that one Gnome program I want to use as root (update-manager in this case) is granted root access.
