Try using /usr/bin/suidperl or sudo.

It means the program assumes a user id other than that of the person
running the file. For example, if something needs to be run as root, you
can set a program to be suid root, and it will run as root regardless of

It means that when you run the program, the program changes to the uid of
the owner of the program. So if you have a program and its owned by root,
and you make it setuid root and executable (chmod 4755), then

It means that the program will be run with the User ID of it's owner.
This is mostly done to allow standard users to do things that require

Thanks. Putting in the whoever.net after the word "search" did the trick.
The nameserver addresses were already in there, although i have no idea how
they got there. This has now rendered my Linux setup half usable. Thank again.

There's more to it, of course, but this should give you a basic idea of how
it all works.

I just went through this shit when I started creating users. I'm not real
adept at the whole process yet but "chmod u+s /usr/sbin/pppd helped me. As
far as I understand it this sets the user id of pppd as root whenever it is
started. Like I said, I'm not to sure yet.
