Someone please enlighten me. I have a Unix Administrator who has root access
to all of his computers. He basically wants to give all of his users the
right to restore files anytime they want. His reasoning is because he
doesn't have access, here is his note to me:

Note that we're talking about one pseudo-DBA on the Data Warehouse server.
He doesn't have root access.  He does have "oracle" access (which I don't)
which means he can only restore database related stuff (which I don't have
responsibility for).

He makes it sound like he can't do this but I get the feeling he just
doesn't want to. Someone please help me understand why he couldn't do these
restores because of his access. I am trying to limit the number of users
that can do restores so this doesn't get out of hand.

Thanks,
