Our group here does not have root access to our Netview installation.

 

We have discussed options with our AIX sysadmin.

 

We can define sudo rights to start/stop Netview.

 

I have identified the following commands we need sudo for:

ovstart

ovstop

netnmrc

nv6000

 

We would like to change group ownership to the /usr/OV directory so that our regular users can modify config files.

 

Has anyone done this?

Is there any danger in modifying group permissions on /usr/OV?

Are there any other executable files I should add to the sudo list?
