Yea im using the NOPASSWD flag at the moment but the problem is that smokeping itself doesnt send the sudo command to the remote machine.

There is a flag called NOPASSWD that you can set on a user that means they will not be prompted for a password when executing privileged commands. There are some related gotchas to set it up properly though, so a read through the man page is highly recommended. Alternatively, script the password entry using expect. ;) - Peter On 19/07/2011 3:50 AM, Glenn Andersson wrote: > Hi! > > Well of course i can use sudo but the system will ask for password for every > check, and that will make the check fail. > > If someone else have a functional idea about sudo I will gladly listen > :) > > Best regards, > Glenn Andersson > > -----Original Message----- > From: G.W.
