Simplicity for new Linux users? Meantime, have a look at

PACKAGE NAME: sudo.tgz
PACKAGE LOCATION: ./slakware/ap1
PACKAGE SIZE (compressed): 117 K
PACKAGE SIZE (uncompressed): 270 K
PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
sudo: sudo-1.6.3p4
sudo:
sudo: 'sudo' is a command that allows users to execute some commands as
sudo: root. The /etc/sudoers file (edited with 'visudo') specifies which
sudo: users have access to sudo and which commands they can run. 'sudo'
sudo: logs all its activities to /var/log/ so the system administrator
sudo: can keep an eye on things.

This might be the simplest solution to your permissions problems. You'll
probably need to assign user a password for it to work though, which may
require installing another package (adduser?).
