This is 'off the top of my head' but when I created the launcher for our systems, I exec'ed the application. Is that all that is needed? <div>On 8/22/07, Joe Korzeniewski <<a href="mailto:jkorzeni@battle-creek.k12.mi.us">jkorzeni@battle-creek.k12.mi.us</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Peter, Thanks for your reply.

I have my /etc/sudoers set up to allow teachers to run fl_teachertool without entering a password. sudo /usr/sbin/fl_teachertool works like a charm from the terminal. When I create a launcher to run that command though it does nothing. If I change the launcher to run in a terminal it works perfectly again. Any idea how to make it run without needing to open a terminal? > > Thanks, > > -Joe > > > > Joe Korzeniewski > Network Administrator > Battle Creek Public Schools > p. 269-965-9667 > c. 269-209-9677 > > > _______________________________________________ > K12OSN mailing list > <a href="mailto:K12OSN@redhat.com">K12OSN@redhat.com</a> > <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn </a> > For more info see <<a href="http://www.k12os.org">http://www.k12os.org</a>> > _______________________________________________ K12OSN mailing list <a href="mailto:K12OSN@redhat.com">K12OSN@redhat.com </a> <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn</a> For more info see <<a href="http://www.k12os.org">http://www.k12os.org</a>> _______________________________________________ K12OSN mailing list <a href="mailto:K12OSN@redhat.com">K12OSN@redhat.com</a> <a href="https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn">https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn</a> For more info see <<a href="http://www.k12os.org"> http://www.k12os.org</a>> </blockquote></div>
