Re: blank passwords+ adminstrator privileges

Why don't you simply do sudo, and then edit the sudoer's file so that that user does not require a password for that operation?

if i want to run a terminal command with administrator privleges from an applescript studio app, do I have to do anything special to handle a blank password? A friend was just telling me that he has a blank password in 10.3, and it made me wonder if my app would handle it correctly. is there a special way to handle this?

i can't test my app or look at the code until tomorrow so that's why i'm asking you guys now :)
