What exactly are you trying to enable users to do? The fact that you need to

provide normal users with these kind of privileges indicates a possible flaw

in your overall scheme. You may find that, after careful reconsideration,

there are precious few commands that you would actually have to allow the

users to run with superuser privileges.


In other words, what problems are you trying to solve that require root

privileges?
