    Startup Applications (with root permissions?)

    I have a python script I would like to run at at startup. Normally this is pretty easy through System->Preferences->Startup Applications

    However, I need this python script to run as root when I start up. How would I accomplish this?


    thanks

    If you want it to run as root when yo boot, put it it /etc/rc.local or write an init script.

    If you want it to run when you log in, add a custom command to the start up applications.
    There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
