I wrote a script that prompts me in dmenu the availible drives to mount or unmount and I added to the with visudo the following line



ALL ALL = NOPASSWD: /path/to/usb-mount


and the script basically takes decisions, and it executes one of this two lines



sudo mount $drive $target
sudo umount $drive


and I have a key binding that executes the command like



sudo /path/to/usb-mount


and well, It runs, it doesn't mount the drive, but if I run the script in the terminal, with sudo, runs the script and does mount.



Any Idea what I need to do?



Supposedly (to my understanding) If I run sudo all subsequent actions take sudo privileges.



Any help?
