Edit the group file in your /etc directory, adding the group name of your
choice to the file. Look at the format of the other groups and the user
names with them and add your user names to that group respectively. Once
you have done that, you can simply change the ownership of your script,
blah.sh like so, assuming you chose "blah" as a group name.
chown root.blah blah.sh
now change permissions:
chmod 770 blah.sh
you have read/write/execute bits on that script for all users in the blah
group as well as root and no permissions set for all other users and/or
groups.
