Re: [Fab-user] fab sudo() doesn't seem to work

[odonian]

Yes, fab logs in to the server - I use ssh keyfiles so there's no prompt.  I tried a run('ls') before the sudo command and it works fine.  As for new lines being appended to the log file, I don't think there were, but I'll check.

Any other suggestions/ideas?  Thank you!

for a password and all that.

What happens if you first do a run('echo hello') before the sudo() operation?

Lastly, while you where sitting there waiting for something to happen,
were there actually any new lines appended to that log file?
