Operating Systems AIX sudo - User privilege specification Post 302587045 by zaxxon on Wednesday 4th of January 2012 03:26:29 AM

I guess that granularity will be not possible with sudo. sudo will be used for a positive list, what they may do, not what they may not do. You might want to have a look into RBAC (Role Based Access Control). You can create a role with just the permissions your users need and assign that to them. There are some IBM Redbooks and IBM System Magazine articles about security handling RBAC.
