Do not grant the usual carte blanche root access (nor sudo shell/edit
access), and keep the root password for the critical build/install
servers in the control of a 3rd party group without admin access.
Probably requires other procedures and planning to work right...

Hopefully the systems will be quick to debug/setup, especially if the
other group is slow/on vacation when something bad happens to the
other server!
