That might explain why such bugs go unnoticed, as many admins might never use the menus. :) But still, if the application installs a menu entry, it should either work as the user or prompt the user for the needed credentials. -- ToddOpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ~~ How's about shutting the hell up!? -- Stewie Griffin pgpiSBx8m20R9.pgp Description: PGP signature -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines

system/admin menu
I'm having a prob w/ system/admin menu.. about 1/2 the progs reply with "The password you typed is invalid. Please try again". It does not prompt for a password. Some things work some things don't. I have no idea where to start troubleshooting this error. -- andy york fedorageeks.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
