Hi list!

I have developped several Bourne shell scripts that help some users
to accomplish general tasks by choosing an option from a list of options.
Such options include, for example, displaying the size of filesystems,
(un)mounting filesystems, user account management (add/remove/lock users, etc).
As you can imagine, many of these options will require the user to have
superuser authorisations.

It would be desirable that only a few users have the permission to execute
these shell scripts. Following are my 2 approaches. I don't know which is
the best. In addition, but I need some further help details of how to
accomplish it, so any hint or suggestion would be highly appreciated.
sudo. It's in the ports. You could fix your shell script permissions to be r-x root-only, but any operations requiring root access will just not work if a regular user runs it, so value is limited.
