[smokeping-users] remote user problem

[Glenn Andersson]

Hi!

Well of course i can use sudo but the system will ask for password for every check, and that will make the check fail.

If someone else have a functional idea about sudo I will gladly listen :)

Best regards,
Glenn Andersson

Can you not use Sudo?
