google gsudo
I like it! I think I'll tinker with this on my workstation, potentially even my dev environment. It isn't suitable for my present issue though, as gsudo is not in the SOE. Also, from that little demo thingy, it appears to pop up a UAC prompt the first time it executes. I need to be non-interactive.
MS sudo also does UAC
This is a sad revelation. This sudo implementation wasn't going to make much difference to me immediately anyway, as I assume sudo won't be in Windows Server until v2025. But still: I was hoping it would work like *nix with a sudoers file or something similar.
