not to mention the fact that if this perl script or c program wrapper is then called from Apache the restriction still applies and I haven't been able to get around it.
At least on my system, perl installs a suid helper that does this for you. You just mark the perl script as suid, and it auto-detects that, and uses the helper to run the actual script. The result is you just set the perl script suid and that's it.
I already tested it from Apache, and it worked for me (several years ago). Shachar -- Shachar Shemesh Lingnu Open Source Consulting Ltd. http://www.lingnu.com
