Greeting!
sudo is a better and more secure solution in your case.
man sudo
On a side note: I need to build a router linux box with 4 serial
interfaces for 4 T1 lines. IP and IPX routing/filtering is required. IP
ports firewalling will be done with ipchains. Has anyone done that and
have a sample config to show? I looked at http://www.linux-router.org,
http://lrp.steinkuehler.net/, http://www.frisco.org, but these setups are
good for IP firewalling and NATing. Any suggestions?
Btw I highly recommend people on this list to have a look at these
projects. It is amazing what you can do with the linux setup that fits on
one floppy disk and does dns, dhcp, firewall etc. and runs on a 386 :)
Thanks,
Denis R.

Don't do it. Why? Because you will be creating a security hole, just
waiting for someone to walk through.
If you want someone to have root access, give them the root password and
have them do "su -".
Do yourself a favor and play it straight.
