Hi Mike
Thank you for your reply.
I will try to teach to my customer to use the command line; however, as
he has never worked with Linux (he has got Windows XP and I am trying to
push him, along with other customers, to switch to Linux), I am not so
sure he can do that.
Do you know how this can be done working in a graphical environment such
as Gnome?

You could give him access via sudo.
username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/bin/rpm
username ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/yum
Then, all he has to do is issue:
sudo /bin/rpm -ivh package-he-wants.to.install.rpm
sudo /usr/bin/yum update
sudo /usr/bin/yum package-he-wants.to.install
Hi everybody
I have a PC running Fedora 9 that I have to lend to a customer for a
limited period.
I would like him to be able to install updates and to install and remove
programs without giving him the root password.
Is it possible, and if it is what do I have to do?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
