I'm making a script that will be a double clickable .command file and I need it to prompt for the users admin password.
So far I have:
if [[ "$(/usr/bin/whoami)" != "root" ]]; then
sudo -p "Please enter your admin password: " date 2>/dev/null 1>&2
if [ ! $? = 0 ]; then
echo "You entered an invalid password or you are not an admin/sudoer user. Script aborted."
exit 1
fi
fi
which does get the prompt, but the rest of the script does not run with sudo privileges as needed. What do I need to do for this to apply to the whole script?
Thanks.
