So I set up sudo to let users run simple commands like mount /dev/fd0
/floppy, but it promps for a password... the root password. This
seems to defeat some of the functionality. I'd like whoever to be
able to mount a CDROM with out giving out the root password.
Anyone know anyway to configure sudo to need no password, or a
different password? Or are there any suggestions, like say a Linux
equivalent to volcheck, as to how to setup users to mount and unmount
floppies and CD's without giving them the ability to unmount, say, the
/usr partition?
PS, this is Slackware, if it makes a difference.
