[ILUG] Sudo Help

[Dave Burke]

Morning Guys,

I was bored yesterday so I decided to finally install sudo to allow the
committee members to change members passwords. Anyway I have it working
fine as far as authenication goes and I whipped up a script that allows
them to change the passwords.

[root at hoth /root]#  cat /usr/local/bin/sudo-passwd
#!/bin/sh

if [ "$1" = root ]; then
        echo "WARNING"
        exit
fi

passwd $1


I'm just not happy with this script, It all looks too simple and I've a
feeling I've done something inherently wrong. Is there anything else that
I should be looking to check?

Thanks a mill,
Dave
