That I can understand, the needle-sharp delegation of a specific function makes sense; UNIX has often being criticised as root doing every aspect of system administration and no compartmentalization and delegation. having a UUCP administrator, a line printer administrator, an new account administrator ... yes, that's the more 'corporate' approach.
But it is a hell of a job to create a suitable sudoers file for that compartmentalization.
Is is any less of a 'hell of a job' to set that up under a IBM MVS system? As far as I can see just add the users to a relevant group and configure SUDO work in terms of that group. Delegate lp, uucp, policy, .... It's all there, just have to run chkstat . More advanced systems use ldap based account management and sudo can make use of that too. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
