for a lil back ground info.
I have a freebsd 4.1r box at work i have setup for hosting multiple
websites.
I am the main admin currently the only one with the root password.

My boss wants me to do two things, and i need some help

1. i am creating a shell or perl script to make the directories of the
websites, but
i need to also add something in there so it will add the VirtualHost Lines
to
httpd.conf and other files, what command would i tell the script to append
to the bottem of the file..
Basicly i need to cut the time down of setting up a web site to a few mins
with this i also have to figure out a way of creating a default dns file,
and have
it copied and have a few sections updated (might see about modifing the
default
PROTO.localhost.rev, or whatever its called for this purpose)


the second problem, is that he feels since he is the owner, even though he
has no
clue about *nix, that he needs to have admin privilages, he also wants a few
of the other techs to have admin too. Is there anyway to create other
superuser
accounts? and is there a way of restricting what they are admins of?
like the web has rights for dns/mail/webserv, or just webserv, and then
another
tech has control over dns?

I am fighting him on this as much as possible, as i want to be the only one
making
those changes.. but until i can convince him, i need to show that i am
attempting
to do as he asks.


Thanks,

Andrew
