Hi, I bet it's a sudo issue, maybe related to restrictions executing sudo outside a real tty. There was an option in sudoers config related to this. eventually try to use capture_plugin.pl ... it works nice. regards, dani - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

I bet it's a sudo issue, maybe related to restrictions executing sudo outside a real tty. There was an option in sudoers config related to this. eventually try to use capture_plugin.pl ... it works nice. perhaps something like that as this config works fine on RHEL4 machines - Its just on RHEL5 where the issue is, i will look at some options to /etc/sudoers - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
