Question rcapache2 for normal user?


Hello,

How can I allow the usage of commands like "rcapache2" or "rcalsasound" to a normal user (to the group "inet")? I tried to set the rcapache2-skript to chown root:inet, also all files this file is linked with. But apache does not start. Is there a good way to solve this?

thw

You will need to set up a sudoers entry:
man sudoers

Then you can run the commands as root using sudo.
