viewsudo

VIEW-OS(1)						      General Commands Manual							VIEW-OS(1)

NAME

       viewsudo - execute a command as another (virtual) user

SYNOPSIS

       viewsudo [-g groupname|#gid] [-u username|#uid] command

DESCRIPTION

       viewsudo allows a user to execute a command as the superuser or
	      another user in View-OS.

OPTIONS

       viewsudo accepts the following command line options:

       -g group
	   Normally,  viewsudo	sets the primary group to root.  The -g option causes sudo to run the specified command with the primary group set
	   to group.  To specify a gid instead of a group name, use #gid.  When running commands as a gid, many shells require	that  the  '#'	be
	   escaped  with  a  backslash	('[u2019]).   If  no -u option is specified, the command will be run as the invoking user (not root).	In
	   either case, the primary group will be set to group.

       -u user
	   The -u option causes viewsudo to run the specified command as a user other than root.  To specify a uid instead of  a  user	name,  use
	   #uid.  When running commands as a uid, many shells require that the '#' be escaped with a backslash ('[u2019]).

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful execution of a program, the exit status from viewsudo will simply be the exit status of the program that was executed.
