Tried to run a program from command line needing admin
capability.

Input su /usr/sbin/synaptic

Get message Unknown id: /usr/sbin/synaptic

Logged in as root, put in password, ran
/usr/sbin/synaptic

and the file ran fine.

Is there no su in Debian?  If not what replaces it?

Now I need some kind of prefix to put in the icon properties
so that symantic will run in admin mode, otherwise it can't
download anything.

Thanx,  doug
