sudo instead of root on TS 5.5.2

Hi,

On pages 30 and 48 of the TS5.5.2 admin guide for Solaris (I'm running 2.8), Interwoven recommends against logging in as root with sudo and alludes to "very bad things" happening if you do.

I was curious if anyone has encountered problems using sudo after the install.

For example, will I totally jack my installation if I use sudo to iwreset or /etc/init.d/iw.server stop??

What about using sudo to iwadduser.ipl ?? Any issues.

It'd be great to hear of any warnings from Interwoven. I know Bob Walden is out there somewhere, being helpful to someone. Share the love, Bob. Share the love.
