sesudo Utility

The sesudo utility executes commands for one user with the permissions of another user. This lets regular users perform actions that require administrator authority.

The rules governing user authority to perform commands in this way are defined as access rules in the SUDO class. A record in the SUDO class contains a command script, and can specify both users who are permitted to run the script with sesudo and users who are forbidden to.
