I understand that there is a program called odm or adm, which is
similar to in function to "sudo".   (sudo is a set uid root program
which allows general users to execute certain "privileged" commands).

Anyway, I have heard that this other program is analogous to sudo,
but was intended for use with afs and employs "token passing".
Supposedly, it was written by David VanRyzin at CMU.

Is it Public Domain?
If so, how do you obtain source?
