abc01  ALL=NOWPASSWD: /usr/bin/vxdisk, !/usr/sbin/shutdown, !/usr/
sbin/
reboot, !/usr/bin/sh, !/usr/bin/csh/, !/usr/bin/ksh


any body can help me to understnad why "!" has used before
shutdown,reboot,sh,csh,ksh in this line or our team member has made a
mistake to print.


Your reply would be appriciated..
