v 4.2

I'm probably missing the point, but i need my bash shell script to run as root.

Root is not 'enabled' 

I can of course run my script via sudo <script> and it works fine.

So, how can I do this with platypus?

Ticking 'requires admin privs' presents me with the dialog which I can 
authenticate
with a local admin user, but this does not run the script as root.

Help?

other than that.. most excellent.. I have interactive dialog boxes via 
Applescript working
well in my shell script, so alls good.

:)
