How easy would it be if that was possible ? For both hackers and developers :-) Changing the uid to root is certainly impossible AFAIK ( at least on unix, on NT everything is possible, but I hope not this one ). The other part is possible and I think it's a very good solution. Costin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
