Everyone,

I am working on a Centos 5.9 system.  I have an need to be able to
activate a piece of software from /etc/smrsh that is activated when
sendmail delivers the e-mail to this piece of software.  I would like
this piece of software to take on the user and group identities that are
different than 'mail' which is what happens now.  I want to use a user
and group that is not root), so that the piece of software will be able
to write (concatenate) to a file.

I have never used setuid, but it appears that this will only allow a
piece of software to be set to root.  I really do not want to give that
kind of privilege to this piece of software.

Any ideas?
