sfeek LQ Newbie Registered: Feb 2002 Location: Mendon, Michigan Distribution: Red Hat 7.2 Posts: 8 Rep:	Running Panel Programs as Superuser I am using RH8.0. I would like to know how I can run a program as a superuser from the Gnome Panel. I made an icon and added it to the panel, but when I click it, it runs as the current user. For some reason the program only runs correctly as superuser. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated!
