One can tell sudo not to prompt for a password. I have the following lines in my sudoers file:
Cmnd_Alias VPN=/root/pppd-cat.sh tunnel ALL=NOPASSWD: VPN
where 'tunnel' is a user on my computer.
True, as long as it was tied to a limited set of commands, it would actually be better security than opening up the device. good call.
