There is acctually two Scripts I wanted.

One for a operator to run the printmig to make a backup
copy of the printers in the server, the problem is that
beeing a backup operator or power user he is not able to
do that.

The second script is to make a operator able to create
some shared folders on the network. I know that he can
make it beening a power user, but can I be more restrict
with him?

Thanks a lot.
