| | 'sudo' in Vista? Hello, seeing that via the GUI now all applications have the shift + right-click popup menu with a Run as administrator entry, is there any way to achieve the same from command line using good old 'runas' or with a 'sudo' that will use the same GUI confirmation prompt of the UAC instead of prompting for password? - Jan |
