firestarter at startup- Ubuntu


Hello, (using ubuntu breezy)

I have firestarter firewall starting at startup in Gnome, but I'm still prompted for a password. I've entered "gksudo /usr/sbin/firestarter" in sessions/startup programs and made entries in /etc/sudoers: (regular user "erin" is not prompted for a password but my regular user account "userzero" is):

# /etc/sudoers
#
# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root.
#
# See the man page for details on how to write a sudoers file.
#

# Host alias specification

# User alias specification

# Cmnd alias specification

# Defaults

Defaults !lecture,tty_tickets,!fqdn

# User privilege specification
root ALL=(ALL) ALL

# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

userzero ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter

erin ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/firestarter


Am I missing something? Thanks in advance for help.
