While trying to add a custom command to thunar in the right click section, I notice that there are some commands that can only be seen apparently in Xfce if logged in as root (or SU in a user terminal).
In KDE or Gnome, these commands can be used as a user, prompted for a pass.
In Xfce however, no go, you must deliberately log in as root or SU in a terminal to "see" some commands.
Any idea of how to make Xfce user accts "see" commands only visible to Root?

Re: No access to certain commands as a user in Xfce
Ok, solved it. It's a "duh"
some commands are "root" access commands and must otherwise be given with the full path. ie.../usr/sbin/command. etc...
have fun.
