If SFTOS supports per-command authorization (via RADIUS/TACACS), you can
it does
limit the script account to only be able to use 'show run' and whatever else it needs (even when it logs in).
you can
That said, if you're looking for on-the-cheap, I haven't seen a free TACACS+ server that does authorization and was stable, so you'll probably have to compromise and give your script more permissions than it needs just to get the job done.
the cisco tacplus src server is a basic example... shrubbery.net's tacplus server is quite workable (and heasley keeps the code working/clean/adding-features) a simple config for 'just permit show run' is certainly possible with the shrubbery.net server... if you want example config pipe up. -chris
