I have got postfix installed on my machine and I am updating on of its configuration files programmatically(using python)(on some action). Since any change in the configuration needs a reload, I need to reload postfix to reflect the latest change. How can I do that in a python script. Precisely, I have something like this:
import subprocess subprocess.Popen('sudo /etc/init.d/postifx reload') Since this script should be run in no-human environment(on the fly), I cant supply the sudo password or even root password(if needed). Even sudo doesn't have a flag to input the password for the command at the first shot. How do I do this? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
