There is a setuid you can do but internal security systems will
bite you in the rear, unless you have set low security or less.
Safest way to do it
go to the menu editor, and set up another entry for nmapfe.
Put it where you want and call it what you want
The command is
kdesu nmapfe
update your menus and it will run as superuser while you are
normally logged in--you will need root password.
