calling "zenmap" under a non-root user

[SCHMIDT, Jürgen <juergen.schmidt () shsservices org>]

Good Morning,
 I'm testing nmap release 5.51 under OpenSuse 11.4. I have a proposal for the grafical interface zenmap. If I'm not the 
root user, zenmap only says me, that I have limited rights. On the other hand the tool Wireshark asks me for the 
password of this user. If I know it, I can work without any limitations with this tool. If I'm working under a shell, 
it isn't any problem for me to change to root and then to call zenmap. Under the desktop like KDE or GNOME I have a 
link to the start-file for zenmap. In this case I must logout out and then login under the root user. That's me to 
complicate. I think, that it would be fine, if zenmap would work like Wireshark in this case. 


freundlichen Grüßen / With Best Regards
Jrgen Schmidt
