Hello K, Unfortunately this is one of the problems with CF: There's no command-line parser for it so you cannot execute it as a different user easily.
While I probably can't give the best advice without knowing the details of your situation, you could potentially create a cron job (the Linux equivalent of a scheduled task) that would periodically delete files in a directory that are older then a specific time period. Would a solution like that work for your purposes?
