[BBLISA] User instructions.

[Eddy Harvey]

Perhaps I too am missing the point -- This is all I think there needs to be
written, in regards to sudo:
 
The root user must first add users to the sudoers list, by using the
"visudo" command.  For help with the sudoers file format, please see man (5)
sudoers
 
Once the user has been added, the user can execute commands with superuser
privilege, simply by typing "sudo command"

Michael,

Are you just looking for a sudo man page?  See

Does anyone have (or know of) any documentation for end users who need
to learn how to do their tasks via 'sudo' instead of any of the
alternatives?

I'm not looking to reinvent the wheel. And *PLEASE*, this is not a 
request or encouragement to discuss/debate/pontificate about the
rights/wrongs of this plan. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place
and the brown river is rising.
