Sudo on Linux
We got a new LinuxSuMBS class for Linux to run commands as root if needed:
dim s as new LinuxSuMBS
s.Command = "/usr/bin/whoami"
s.User = "root"
s.Alert = "Please Root?"
s.Message "Can I install something for you?"
if s.ExecuteSudo then
MsgBox "OK"
else
MsgBox s.LastErrorMessage
end if
Our example writes a little shell script and runs it as root. Could be useful to write an installer which updates a web app (As example). Of course this is for GUI apps and requires user to enter a root password.
