Say I want to give someone access to /example/directory/* where * equals all the sub directories inside of /example/directory

I tried doing something like

joe DEV1=(ROOT) /example/directory/

But that doesn't seem to want to work. If I give him the full subdirectory path, like..


joe DEV1=(ROOT) /example/directory/something/apache/

He can run everything but I'd like to make it a little broader than that.

Is this possible with sudo?
