priv allows authorised users to execute commands that run as different
users.
When priv is invoked, it reads a list of authorised commands from a
database file called
${PREFIX}/etc/priv/<username>
2004-02-01 01:11:13 +01:00
Each line of the database file is a colon-separated list of fields.
The first two fields must be specified. Blank lines or lines
beginning with a ``#'' character are ignored. The fields, in order,
are:
expiry date
user name to run command as
flags
command name
The format of the expiry date is YYYYMMDDhhmm. A date of ``0'' is
interpreted as no expiry date.
