Recently I submitted a patch (XECS-1852) which provides XML/RPC
interfaces to check for updates, query the system version and to
actually update the software on the system (sipX software only) using
yum.  When I tested this on my development machine, everything worked
fine because my user was part of the "wheel" group and that group was
setup to not require a password for root.

In trying out this capability on an actual ISO, the commands don't work
because the user "sipxchange" does not have sudo (with no password)
privileges.  I assume that this is the case for this user because of
security.   I also tried using the special application "sipxpackage"
used by SipXConfig with the same result.

Is there any way around this issue other than putting sipxchange in the
wheel group and changing the group so that it doesn't require a password
for root?
