Not really necessary, but you will have to give root a Coda token so
that it can reintegrate the changes. Coda doesn't allow a user with
userid '0', so you need to authenticate by using the <username> argument
to clog.
# whoami
root
# clog some_codauser
Password: xxx
It is possible to use a crontab entry to refresh the token for the
server processes. Put the password in a file in /etc that cannot be read
by ordinary users (owner root.root, chmod 600) and add a crontab entry
that looks like the following,
# crontab -e
* 9 * * * * ( cat /etc/coda_password | clog -pipe some_codauser )
