i have defined a rule in the sudoers file so a specific user is able to run some commands as sudo with no password.
my question is: is it possible to restrict a user to run commands as sudo only in a certain directory? for example: chown only the files that are located in /var/tmp.
Thank you.

BBCOMBOTEST(1) General Commands Manual BBCOMBOTEST(1)
NAME
bbcombotest - Xymon combination test tool
SYNOPSIS
bbcombotest --help
bbcombotest --version
bbcombotest [--debug] [--quiet]
DESCRIPTION
bbcombotest is a Xymon extension script that runs on the BBDISPLAY server. It combines the results of one or more of the normal Xymon test
results into a combined test result, using standard arithmetic og logical operators.
The resulting tests are sent to the Xymon display server as any normal test - so all of the standard Xymon functions (history, statistics
etc.) are available for the combined tests.
The tool was born from the need to monitor systems with built-in redundancy and automatic failover - e.g. load-balanced web servers. But
other uses are possible.
OPTIONS
--quiet
Normally, the test status sent by bbcombotest includes information about the underlying test results used to determine the current
value of the combined test. "--quiet" eliminates this information from the test status page.
--debug
Provide debugging output for use in troubleshooting problems with bbcombotest.
--no-update
Dont send any status messages - instead, the result of the combotests is simply dumped to stdout. Useful for debugging.
FILES
$BBHOME/etc/bbcombotest.cfg
Configuration file for bbcombotest, where the combined tests are defined
$BBHOME/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg
Configuration file controlling when bbcombotest is run.
