Don't need to read it, as I am the one who wrote the bug report. But I will reread it, as my technical writing leaves a lot to be desired. (Hey, I know what I mean, everyone else should read my mind! lol) This is the part of the bug report I am referring to: Would you please add a feature that asks for the "root" password before trying to upgrade? And, not attempt to upgrade, unless the user is actually "root" or has been elevated to root. I later remarked that I like the way Mac OS prompts. And I later added that /usr/bin/system-config-network prompts you for your root password, maybe see how they did it Please everyone vote for this bug! -T
