 Bug Type:         Feature/Change Request
 Operating System: RH7.2
 PHP Version:      4.1.2
 New Comment:

Those functions are very good, except they cannot be used in a hosting
context where the users are not root...

There should be a mechanism like Apache has for .cgi's (per virtual
host or location) or dynamically establishing the owner via the home
directory lookup.

PHP already has functions to swap uids and guids, posix_* (see
www.php.net/posix).

There is a need for suexec/suid type functionality for PHP scripts -
switch of ownership conext in a secure environment. Is this going to
happen?
