Hi,

I have one application with 'normal' user privileges. This application runs another one which has 4755 permissions. Does this mean that the second application will run as root???
I believe not... The second application tries to setuid(0) and fails.
How to tackle this problem so I can run second application with root privileges from first no-root application???
