install sudo. Should be an rpm around somewhere. Very powerfull and flexible
in the config. From I want to be able to do anything to allowing users to only
run certain commands. I will if configured to do so prompt you for the users
password so you don't even have to know roots password. Of course you will have
to su to set it up :)
