Well, as root, I tried using ]# nano -w sudoers to add one line.
# %users localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now
tslg ALL=NOPASSWD: /sbin/service privoxy restart
Now, as she, I get :
[tslg at Hbsk2 ~]$ sudo /sbin/service privoxy restart
Stopping privoxy: [ OK ]
Starting privoxy: Apr 08 18:55:24.929 Privoxy(b7fd56c0) Info: Privoxy
version 3.0.10
Apr 08 18:55:24.929 Privoxy(b7fd56c0) Info: Program name: /usr/sbin/
privoxy
[ OK ]
[tslg at Hbsk2 ~]$
Which looks to me like it did it. Right?
