![]() ![]() I had the same problems as you described. Posted: Tue 18 Oct, 2005 19:05 Post subject: I did notice that in terminal, if I sudo first and then try open it doesn't make any difference. I was hoping to use a clickable applescript to prompt authentication and then launch DIX but don't know enough about the difference between using sudo and Pseudo and why sudo isn't working as expected. I would like to give a gui solution to the schools I work with that is as low cost as possible. I am using the same account and password in both situations. When I sudo open and then ps -aux I see the process is still running as myself (an admin user) but when I use Pseudo the process is being run as root. I don't understand why sudo open isn't working. Using it to launch DIX, all directories were visible. Posted: Tue 18 Oct, 2005 17:49 Post subject: sudo vs Pseudo It might be a good idea to test this first as root (this user may be activated first with the "NetInfo Manager" - at least on the desktop version of Mac OS X).

I had some problems with non-admin users.īut if DIX is launched by Pseudo, every directory should be viewable. let Disk Inventory X scan your hard driveĭoes Disk Inventory X still says that only 9.4 GB is used? drag Disk Inventory X's icon onto the terminal window (it's path is appended to the command) in Terminal.app type "sudo open " (with a space after "open") Please try to run Disk Inventory X with administrator's privileges: You seem to have some really big files which are invisible for Disk Inventory X (or they reside in some folders in which the app can't look into). I am excited about this tool because in the past we have had problems with users and quotas but DIX will allow the server admins to quickly find the problems. Did I misunderstand that the sudo open should allow for this to happen? I was running DIX as an admin on a 10.3.8 server to check the sizes of networked home directories.Īny help would be appreciated. I tried using the sudo command as suggested, but am still unable to get results for directories in other users' homes.
