Ah yes it still needs privileges, so instead of running "$ chef-client", it 
runs "$ sudo -E chef-client", with chef in sudoers and /sbin paths 
appropriately set up. I just dont like running anything as root, but that's 
because I'm paranoid ;)

I'll see what I can do about tidying some stuff up and then send it out 
somehow. I probably wont make the 'cookbook competition', but then I'm a bit 
of a latecomer to chef :-)
