You create a group for these users and assign them to it. You create a directory where the file to be changed is placed in, lets say
Code:
/usr/local/var/vid_ipconf.txt
which is a copy of your ip config file.
chgrp the directory and the file so that the group you created can access and write to both, the directory and the file.
As next write a small shell script, that does a copy of the original file that will be placed under /etc/network.... (whereever your original config file is placed) each time the script is run. So a simple
Code:
cp -p /etc/network/origfile /origfile.bk
will do maybe.
Next this script copies the file placed the exchange directory (/usr/local/var/vid_ipconf.txt) over the original config file (/etc/network/origfile) and you have to restart your network (?? /etc/init.d/network restart).
This script should be placed into the crontab of root so that it will be called every interval you configure.
I hope the picture got sharper
Make sure you try out before you do so not that you loose connect entirely. No idea if you are remote connected to that machine or can access it via keyboard and screen locally if something goes wrong.

atsadc
ATSADC(1) local ATSADC(1)NAME
atsadc, atsa1, atsaftp, atsahttp -- counter-collection
SYNOPSIS
atsadc [ t n ] [ ofile ]
atsa1 [ t n ]
atsaftp
atsahttp
DESCRIPTION
System activity-data can be gathered on special request of a user [see atsar(1) ] or automatically, on a routine basis, as described here.
Usually the kernel maintains statistical counters that are incremented as various system actions occur. These include counters for CPU uti-
lization, disk utilization, memory utilization and various network statistics.
The program atsadc and the shell-script atsa1 are used to collect, save, and process these counters.
The program atsadc (the data collector) samples system data n times with an interval of t seconds between samples, and writes in binary
format to ofile or (default) to standard output. The sampling interval t should be greater than 1 second. If t and n are omitted, a special
reset-record is written. This facility is used when booting to a multi-user state, to mark the time at which the counters restart from
zero. For example, the reset-mark can be added to the daily data by the command:
/usr/local/bin/atsadc /var/log/atsar/atsa`date +%d`
Note that this entry is written to the /etc/rc.d/init.d/atsar file.
The shell-script atsa1 is used to collect and store data in the binary file /var/log/atsar/atsadd where dd is the current day of the month.
The arguments t and n cause records to be written n times at an interval of t seconds, or once if omitted. Furthermore this script takes
care that log-files older than a week are removed once a day.
A file containing following entries should be added to the /etc/cron.d directory to produce records every 20 minutes during working hours
and hourly otherwise:
0 * * * 0-6 root /usr/local/bin/atsa1
20,40 8-17 * * 1-5 root /usr/local/bin/atsa1
See crontab(1) for details.
The shell-script atsaftp counts the new transfers registered in the FTP-logfile(s) since the previous time this script was activated; the
new counters are stored in the /var/log/atsar/ftpstat file in ASCII-format. The names of the FTP-logfiles to be watched are specified in
the /etc/atsar.conf configuration-file.
The shell-script atsahttp counts the new transfers registered in the HTTP-logfile(s) since the previous time this script was activated; the
new counters are stored in the /var/log/atsar/httpstat file in ASCII-format. The names of the HTTP-logfiles to be watched are specified in
the /etc/atsar.conf configuration-file.
Both scripts must be activated just before the program atsadc is started, which also collects these counters.
FILES
