Hello,

I'm about to interface some scripts on W3 (in a fairly secure corner).
My
problem is in particular that I need to run a shellscript that requires
to
run by root. I set the -t option, I tried the -s option, but my script
keeps
generating an error (that the user (nobody) running the deamon W3
doesn't
have the right to execute.

Please, gimme some advice.

Cheers

Michael

Setuid shell scripts are forbidden for security reasons. Use either a C
wrapper or a setuid Perl script (much better IMO).
