Another SUDOER Question...
I have my sudoers file setup to provide execution of specific directories (/a/s, /a/x, /a/d, /a/e, etc.....) I tried to list just /a/ meaning anything under /a can be executed by specific ids. However, this didn't work. Is there a way to provide rights to an entire directory structure within a sudoer file? If it helps, this is AIX 5.2.


As an aside, I was told I had to provide the ability to issue the chown command for this same directory. In my sudoer file, can I say "/bin/sudo su - /bin/chown /a" to cover the entire directory structure?

Thanks again.

glgenqueries

GLGENQUERIES(3G)						    OpenGL 3.3							  GLGENQUERIES(3G)

NAME

       glGenQueries - generate query object names

C SPECIFICATION

       void glGenQueries(GLsizei n, GLuint * ids);

PARAMETERS

       n
	   Specifies the number of query object names to be generated.

       ids
	   Specifies an array in which the generated query object names are stored.

DESCRIPTION

       glGenQueries returns n query object names in ids. There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is
       guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately before the call to glGenQueries.

       Query object names returned by a call to glGenQueries are not returned by subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with
       glDeleteQueries().

       No query objects are associated with the returned query object names until they are first used by calling glBeginQuery().

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGenQueries is executed between the execution of glBeginQuery() and the corresponding execution of
       glEndQuery().

ASSOCIATED GETS

       glIsQuery()

SEE ALSO

       glBeginQuery(), glDeleteQueries(), glEndQuery()
