Description Nick Levinson 2009-08-19 16:16:56 UTC 
problem: Menu command is nonresponsive in nonroot.

how to reproduce:
1. Log into a nonroot account.
2. Main Menu > System > Administration > Network Device Control. (In a nonroot account, nothing responds to the menu command; I don't know why it doesn't request root authorization.)

actually happening: No response.

expect: Dialog requesting root authorization or Network Device Control dialog.

every time: Yes.

any other info: The Gnome version is 2.24.1, running in Fedora 10, in which I've enabled GUI root access.

Thank you.

Please report the bug to fedora. This tool is a fedora tool as far as I can tell.
