A question on visudo config


Trying to get visudo to work

Truecrypt works in (both) the following config but wireshark does not.

Quote:
michal ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/truecrypt, /usr/bin/wireshark
Quote:
michal ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/truecrypt
michal ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wireshark

Am I missing something?

What happens if you run "sudo wireshark"?

The difference between wireshark running as root (admin rights) and as normal user is that
- with admin rights -> a list of interface available
- as normal users -> no interface available

It is normally. This problem does not relate to your first question.
