[TriLUG] 'sudo' access to passwd program

[Jeremy Portzer]

Hello,

Here at the community college, I would like to give an instructor access
to change student passwords on a server that's set aside for student
use.  However, if I give him 'sudo' access to the passwd command, he
would be able to change the root password and my password, which I don't
want.  But I feel confident enough* to allow him to change any student
password.  Any ideas on how to do that without a complex script or
program?

* Yeah, maybe not the best idea, but I'll give it a try for a semester.
