Hi Sergio / Hola Sergio,
as you know, you can "summon" single YaST modules directly.
For example:
yast2 sw_single -- for software management
yast2 lan -- for network configuration
etc.
Use yast2 --list for a complete list of modules available.
So, maybe you can wrap these commands on a shell script and combine these with sudo...
I haven't tried this myself so I cannot tell you whether it works or not...
My 2 cents...
Martin

Subject: [opensuse] Fine-graining Yast access
Hi,
I want to create a special 'administrator' account, which has higher
priviledges than an user account (can use certain Yast modules, for
instance) but also has lower permissions than root (can't touch /etc,
for instance). Now, the directories are no big deal - just change the
group of whatever directories necessary and then add this user to such
group along with root - but as far as Yast, I wonder if there is some
way to configure this other than manually changing group and
permission to every single module (or even if it is possible to do
such a thing - AFAIK yast is a single application with different
parameters).
Any ideas are well appreciated.
Sergio.
