Dear All, Just previewed the sudo manual :
http://www.sudo.ws/sudo/man/sudoers.html pete HPPA = /usr/bin/passwd [A-z]*, !/usr/bin/passwd root The user pete is allowed to change anyone's password except for root on the HPPA machines. Note that this assumes passwd(1) does not take multiple usernames on the command line. If the Linux System is FC System, so how about the format of it ? Many thanks ! Edward. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [sudo-users] How to disable ( deny ) user to change the password of root Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2008 16:49:05 +0800 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: fedora-list@redhat.com <fedora-list@redhat.com> Dear All, For the sudo setting ( visudo ) : User_Alias SYSADM = manager Cmnd_Alias NOROOT = !/usr/bin/passwd root Cmnd_Alias USER = /usr/sbin/adduser, /usr/bin/passwd, /bin/chown, /usr/sbin/userdel SYSADM MH = (ALL) NOROOT,USER BUT the test result as the following : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ sudo passwd root Changing password for user root.
