Yes, you are exactly right.  I  was running my little command line script as
root, so I neglected to see that it would ask for a password if run as a
different user.  However it still doesn't solve the problem of restarting
minivend if I use a command like:

$cmd = 'minivend/mvend/bin/restart'

This one works from the command line without giving a password prompt and
actually restarts minivend if run as the same user as minivend but will not
work from the web app.
