Hi;

Is there a relatively simple way to change admin/system programs called
by gnome launchers so that they ask for / accept the users password and
the sudoers file and configuration instead of only the root password?

I think that's distribution specific. Fedora, for example, asks for
the root password (or at least it did up to FC5, the last one I used).
Ubuntu asks for the user's password. I believe the app used is
gksu(do).

I have just done a clean Fedora 7 install, replacing FC6. I'll ask on
the Fedora list.
