I am using Lubuntu 10.10 and have installed my application that I need. What I need is a link to the desktop that will execute the program from the /usr/share/test directory. When I execute the program I need to use "Sudo" in order to run in. So my questions is how would I add a symbolic link the desktop with the appropriate permission to run the executable without compromising security.
I tried everything but cannot get it to execute under ubuntu:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Exec=sudo /usr/share/test/test_scripts/test
Terminal=true
Name=Test
Comment=Test network vulnerability scanner
Icon=/usr/share/test/html/images/test_icon.png
Category=Application;
