SUDO-config to allow non-root users use "init q"

I would like to allow some non-root users to use 'init q'. These users are a kind of super-users but I don't want them to know the root password, but they should have the ability to run 'init q'.

From the postings I understand SUDO would be a great tool for this, but I can't figure out the syntax of the 'sudoers'-config file.

Can someone give me an example of such a config file to allow one user to execute 'init q' ?

Or set up a restricted SAM menu to let users run this command.

Steve,

Thank you for pointing me to this basic-manual for using SUDO.
With this information I have configured SUDO and it works.

Wonderfull.
