It's risky, but you could run apache as root (or suexec the cgi to root)
and then within the script itself do a setuid and seteuid. Since apache is
forking and execing the cgi itself, you should be able to use setuid (the
same way login and ssh does when a user logs into the system). Within perl

Hi All
I have been playing with scripts to implement some "intranet
functions" via a webrowser cgi interface.
