Possible to give sudo access to subdirectories?
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? |

sudo is mainly a facility for controlling access to commands. Can't you give those directories a specific group and then add your guy to that group? That sounds a lot less dangerous, unless he really needs to be able to respawn init(8) in that particular directory (just to make a point).
