I have a simple shell script on my Ubuntu guest OS (running via VirtualBox): called “add_share.sh”
I can run it using sudo (i am not root user on Ubuntu)
So i’m trying to add this script in autorun (“Dash home” -> “Startup Applications”):

bash /home/rusty/add_share.sh

Permissions for script file are: -rwxrwxr-x
But script doesn’t run after system reboot. I think that problem is in non-root access, so what should i do? Can i add this script to autorun without login as root?
