[Sheflug] su

["technical" <nospam [at] minsthorpecc.wakefld.sch.uk>]

im trying to run cgi shell scripts but keep getting access denied due to
apache running as user nobody can i use su without user intreaction to run
the process as root as apache wont run as root without a recompile cos i was
going to run a seperate hidden server to run admin scripts. My script is as
follows:

#!/bin/sh
echo content-type: text/plain
echo
echo internet server stopping
/etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S20inetd stop

could someone point me into the right direction untill until I can get a
book on cgi scripting im stuck.

Cheers Kevin
