I've configured my Debian for Ubuntu (and Mac)-style system administration, which means basically having the root account locked (no password). I do all the "root" tasks via sudo or the graphical gksudo front end.
However, I seem unable to configure System / Authorizations (polkit-gnome-authorization) via this method. Polkit demands a root password. What changes do I need to make to my Debian setup that would allow me to configure Authorizations without an explicit root password. I know this is possible since this is how Ubuntu does it. Ubuntu allows the "blessed" user (the user granted admin privileges via sudo) to configure Polkit using the user's login password. Thanks in advance. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
