Thank-you.
This gives the desired behavior for users in group wheel. However, for
users not in wheel it still asks for the nonexistent root password. Is
there a way to have the system simply state something like, "You don't
have permission to access this program. Contact your system administrator?"
Or perhaps there is a man page/doc I should take a look at instead of
asking here. Any pointers?
