I've put together a very restricted command interpreter that reads user permissions from a file and allows "root" to grant the privilege to execute specific executables on a per group/user basis. It's available to those who want it. BSD (sorry) only for now, but very portable. The only changes needed should be rindex() and such, as well as the lack of a syslog(8) deamon. It passes BSD lint(1) and is commented :-). Anyhow, no idea if anyone needs it, but if you think it may be useful, drop me e-mail. --mjr(); -- "We're fantastically incredibly sorry for all these extremely unreasonable things we did.
