If you simply want Users to not be able to execute the 'save' command in
/usr/sbin, there are two simply steps to accomplish this:

1. Remove '/usr/sbin' from the Users PATH environment variable.

2. Change the permissions on /usr/sbin/save with:
     cd /usr/sbin
     chmod o-x save      (this simply removes the execute permission for
'others', group and User-owner will still be able to execute it).

This will keep it from being executed by a common user, and should still
allow backups to run....
Actually on Linux, /usr/sbin/save is a link to /usr/bin/save, which has
permissions:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  save

What are the permissions for "/usr/sbin/save" currently?
