    On a client machine attached to my Xserve I would like to allow a non
admin user to be able to install programs. I believe I can do this by
editing the /etc/authorization file. Does anyone know of a good way to do

They just need to have permission to write to where the install is targeted. Anything else would be granting them privileges.
