You might have to write some code to help manage this. I remember changing the permissions of the unix 'cancel' command so that anyone in a group could execute it. What I also do for these kinds of things is to have our batch processing program do the work. So, lets say you would have some kind of a 'gui' front end to build the command that you want to execute and then just hand if off to the daemon. The daemon would be running as root. Anthony
