Not precisely what you are requesting, but the "sudo" command could be used to allow your admin root access to certain commands only. See "man sudo" and "man visudo". The /etc/sudoers file has examples of this sort of functionality, but should only be edited using the visudo utility.

You can look into "chroot"ing, where the other person has a different root directory, and all the sub-directories, and you copy the commands that they're allowed to use into their directory tree. Of course, to do this properly, you also need to make sure that they can't use a compiler, else they can create their own commands. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
