How to run a script as root on Mac OS X? [closed]

Answer 1

Or you can access root terminal by typing sudo -s

Answer 2

sudo ./scriptname

Answer 3

As in any unix-based environment, you can use the sudo command:

$ sudo script-name

It will ask for your password (your own, not a separate root password).

Answer 4

sudo ./scriptname

sudo bash will basically switch you over to running a shell as root, although it's probably best to stay as su as little as possible.

Answer 5

In order for sudo to work the way everyone suggest, you need to be in the admin group.
