There are plenty answers in internet, search "nopasswd (or Passwordless) sudo setup" you will get the answer.

You may be able to do what you need to do from /etc/rc.local, which runs as root on startup.

BTW, a salmon is a fish but what's that allikm warhmat stuff?

You can put the below line in your /etc/sudoers file

PHP Code:
username ALL NOPASSWDALL 
Alternatively, if you are looking for a different option, you can use "expect" tool
