Thank you verymuch, This is working.
But, one more doubt.Can a user run commands like fdisk, mount..?
I can do this by the command "su" and root password.
But,i don't want to give root password to users,
I want, particular user should run some commands like fdisk,mount without
using "su" and root password. Please clarify me.
