okay, with a brief explaination i have scripts that run under apache,
user/group nobody... now say these scripts are to
update/add/remove/modify users/passwords using either pw, or pwd_mkdb
... how can i get around the errors of these utilities needing to be run
as root, in order to be effective ???
