If trying to adjust the time of the panel clock (2.12.1) doesn't accept sudo as
authentication method.  Brings up an error dialog box as below:

"Failed to run time-admin as user root:
 The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this
program. Contact the system administrator."

Entering either the root password or the sudo users password does not work.
