Thank you for the response. Sorry for the color, I didn't realize it would be such a sensitive issue.
As for the recommendation, I don't know that it would fulfill the same security needs, as it would make the script it's self owned by the user, which means that the user could also see it, yes?
Also, by putting the sudo command inside the script, wouldn't that fork off another sub-shell to run the subsequent commands?

in our current system if an admin needs root access he just gets the root password and uses an su.
some of our staff have decided that a sudo to "/bin/sh" will be easer.
some of our staff think a sudo to "su -" will be better.

murmur-user-wrapper
murmur-user-wrapper(1) General Commands Manual murmur-user-wrapper(1)
NAME
murmur-user-wrapper - User wrapper for murmurd.
SYNOPSIS
murmur-user-wrapper [options]
DESCRIPTION
Murmur is the server component of Mumble, a low-latency, high quality VoIP application. Murmur-wrapper is a wrapper script to make it eas-
ier for normal users to set up their own, private murmur server.
OPTIONS
-d "directory"
Set directory to use. By default, the wrapper script uses $HOME/murmur
-s Check if murmur process is running.
-k Terminate running murmur process.
-i Initialize only, do not start the server.
-p "password"
Specify password for the SuperUser account and exit. SuperUser is the mumble equivalent of root, a special user which bypasses all
access restrictions.
NOTES
To create your own private server, you first want to run
murmur-user-wrapper -i
Then edit ~/murmur/murmur.ini to set the various configuration settings. The most important is probably the port; unless you're the only
murmur process running on this server, you'll need to change it.
When you're happy with your settings, you need to set the password for SuperUser, which is your administrator account.
murmur-user-wrapper -p <password>
Once this is done, simply run
murmur-user-wrapper
to start the server.
