I know that that was a little vague. These questions
are good for me to narrow this down. I am trying to
execute tools as root. Essentially I am currently
building an abstraction layer over some tools so I
need a way to abstract the authentication before
executing a series of tools.
If you can give me some help it would be much
appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff.
