Thanks,
I guess SqlLite would work well, I just had a ready available
postgress DB available. I am using such simple sql it should be
compatable with almost all databases. I am not a fan of Flat files, If
that were the case I should just parse an existing sudoers formated file
and be done with it.
I'll add a more generic select of databases in the next release
sometime next week

LDAP should not be that hard to implement, though I have never used it.
I'll have to add this as the research to do list. Though that probably
would be a great solution cause I would not have to build a screen to
populate the data just export it from an existing DB and let the admin
add it though his normal Ldap screen.
