I'd like to give my user level account certain privleges in running
programs in /sbin.  Specifically /sbin/adsl-start and /sbin/adsl-stop.=20
I've read the sudo man page thinking that it was the way to go, but it
didn't make much sense to me. The file /etc/sudoers says at the top=20

"# This file MUST be edited with the 'visudo' command as root." and to
read the man page on how to edit or create a sudoers config file.=20
However, the man page didn't mention specifically how to do this.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

Jean-Paul
