    Hi, please excuse the newbish nature of my question. I knew this list would
    be my best bet for a good, quick explanation. I have a few red hat servers
    and I want to give some of my friends access for helping me with
    administrative tasks. I do not want to dish out an entire passwd list for
    the root accounts. What I really need is a single user account that has the
    ability to su to any user on the system other than root. This account
    should also be able to change the passwd's for all the user accounts, other
    than root. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

    best,
    Brad
