thanks..is there an application or a way on how to do this? because i want our sysads to say apt-get install, shutdown, mv, cp etc but will restrict their access to the ff for example
a. /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf--- its bec i will disable usb/video module
in this way they will not be able to edit this file but they can edit all files, cp, mv, rm etc since they are sysad and they will be sudoers.
