If you are talking about the start of this thread I don't think so. I
belive he was asking about setting the suid bit on the permissions
rather than running the program sudo to accomplish the task. Besides
the security issues that are apparent with setting suid bits I had
forgotten that you can't do it for scripts.
I don't think is mentioned enough. I found it by surfing one day a year
or so ago and it has soved several problems for me. Very fine
resolution of the commands allowed to be run as any user not just root.
I have never really done any of the really fancy aliases but it IS
extremely powerful as I am sure you already know :)
