You could try to give users a normal account and let them run admin things against sudo perhaps. You could setup sudo for these users in the way that they need to give the user password instead of the root password in order to get more rights. I know how to do this on the commadnline, but I am not sure how this works on a desktop like KDE or GNOME. > With webmin, you are root and no one else, but > you can create admin accounts that have certain rights to certain > areas. And, they can access from their workstation via their browser. In fact this is a bit of such a sudo-environment. bis dahin/kind regards Martin Mewes -- Webmin Translation Team -> http://webmin.mamemu.de/ Translators wanted -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailinglist mboxes -> http://mbox.mewes.tv/mbox/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
