Hi
My work environment requires that I sudo to an administrative userid using:
sudo -u userid sudo-sh
I normally run emacs using my login userid which is different from the
administrative userid.
Is there a way I can do this using tramp?
The problem of doing this from shell/eshell is that I am able to login
using the above sudo command but when I open a file using C-x C-f, the
files
are opening with my userid rather than the administrative userid.
Is there a workaround for this?
Thanks,
Raj
