i dont mean any offense at this, but if you dont even
know how to give an unprivileged script 'root' privileges,
you probably shouldnt be doing it ;) you can inadvertently
make your system extremely vulnerable.
but if you're intent, read up on "SUID scripts" and
"wrapper" programs that give your scripts some more privileges.
this is a brief expalanation of how to write a C wrapper
program and give it SUID permissions (it's really easy)
