I have an /etc/sudoers entry like below 
%users ALL = NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/vmcp, /sbin/lstape
The lstape command works but the vmcp command returns:
Error: Could not open device /dev/vmcp: Permission denied

Any insight?

John,

> Why not set up "sudo" for that?
Yes, of course.  Thanks. I added the following line to /etc/sudoers and
that did it:

  %www    ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/vmcp
