/* my sample script is */
 
#!/usr/local/bin/php
<?php
echo posix_getmyeuid()."\n";
?>

/*
root#chown root.vhost /scripts/myscript
root#chmod 4710 /scripts/myscript
root#useradd -u 1001 gavin
root#usermod gavin -G vhost
root#logout
gavin$/scripts/myscript
1001
gavin$

i had to create /usr/local/bin/setuid_php
and chmod 4710 it to be able to make my php scripts run setuid root
(i'm not a perl person i don't know if perl supports setuid but I know
scripts that i pass thru 
/bin/zsh support setuid)

I don't really like having that script there :0 
because A, I'm learning but i'm learing quickly
that the more "permissions" you have the 
more you're likely to get a stuck up the rear end
and essentially that lets anyone become god on my system who might find
it, I think i'm going to go move it outside of /usr/local/bin right
now
