I'm in the planning stages of a smallish app that will need to run some shell 
commands that generally require root privileges to run (eg: route, ifconfig, 
ifup). I know this is a security nightmare but I don't really have a choice, 
I have to provide this functionality through a web based interface. What is 
the accepted way of accomplishing this? I've considered assigning nobody to a 
privileged group, sudo, changing exec permissions (last resort).

Opinions???

TIA,
Brad
