[Bug 63766] Re: [network-admin] network-admin can be run without root-rights

Yes, only users who are inside the "admin" group may change the network
settings this way. I guess this is a nice feature for people who migrate
from windows, but it scares the heck of of me... ;)

BTW: The same thing affects users-admin an all other tools out of gnome-
system-tools

Isn't it risky to be able to execute all those system tools without
getting the necessary rights first?
