Different sets of users may access different operations, and the security-related aspects of each operation can be carefully controlled. . The main attraction of op over sudo is the use of mnemonics rather than true commands. This allows an administrator to present users with more intuitive commands. . Other available features are: . - fine-grained per-command control - a really short name - host-based access control - command expiration - variable expansion - multi-line arguments
