Launcher for Zenmap (or nmapfe) as SUDO

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 6340 / 2 Years ago, fri, april 29, 2022, 3:10:37

I've installed nmap, and also nmapFE. By default these are NOT set up to run as root; however, the tasks I need to run require it. I am able to run sudo nmapfe from terminal; however, if I create a launcher for this, it doesn't run.

What am I doing wrong?

Use gksu in your launcher

gksu zenmap

gksu nmapfe

You can edit the zenmap launcher with alacarte. Screenshots of alacarte and configuration of the zenmap launcher:
