I want to make a script that will allow a user to create a newuser or to
change a user password.
so I do not want to give that user the root password, but without the root
login account he cannot
create a newuser. does anybody have any idea hoe to do it in the best way
without letting the
user login as root..
Thanks in Advantage

1. Unix ADM How to SU ROOT WITHOUT PASSWORD
You can also do......
root:ALL:NOPASS
in /etc/suath . That allows all users to su root w/out a password. of
course, you should use a username instead of 'ALL' unless you are a TOTAL
dimwit......

: Hard-coding UIDs into the program is a horrible way to do this. Wouldn't
: sudo be easier?
