I would like to run netscape as a different user from a
script to display some images.  I (apparently mistakenly)
thought that if I ran netscape from a script with the setuid
bit set and the owner of the script being the user I want,
that I could then launch netscape as that user.  Nope.  Is
there anyway to do this?  The object here is really to get
two sepereate instances of netscape running so I can kill
the first one.  Everything I have tried just opens another
window in the exising instance.  If I su from a terminal
window and then launch netscape I am jammin, but I don't
know how to automate that.  Any ideas.

While you are wondering bout that, maybe someone knows why
if I have a javascript set to open a window and then loop
through different files it contiues to chew up memory until
it eats all swap and segfaults.  This is the reason that
I am trying the preemptive strike,  open the next instance,
start the loop of pages and kill the old one.

Any idea greatfully accepted.

Bret
