OSX - Allow non-admin users to run Software Update

Hi,

Is it possible to use a script that will allow non-admin users in OSX to run software updates? Also, I would like to deploy this script using K1000.

Well you won't be able to use the Software Library to let users install software. Currently that is only for Windows but you could write a script that you can add to the software library and the OSX user can log in an execute that scripte, as long as they have the KBOX agent on their system. Then the agent can run the script.
