    Root access to NON-administrators

    We use sudo for almost everything. It works well and allows for the logging of all activity as root. Giving out the root password to multiple folks removes a lot of the ability to back trace to who did what. In fact we have incorporated sudo with the secure ID cards. This adds a whole extra...
