ls -l one_script

man chmod

Perhaps:

chmod a+rx one_script

hi...


#chmod 777 file-name.

This will give all permission to everyone. So any user can execute this .

So everyone can damage it, too? Was this
part of the original request? (I must have
missed it.)

One observation about this:

The script have to be placed somewhere where "any" user can access it. Do not choose /tmp for this task. Also, only placing the script on prod55's home directory is not a solution.

Would be best if the root would place the script (as it is intended to be accessible by everyone) in some system wide path like /usr/local/bin. This implies some extra work from prod55 user (as in to deploy the script/application as a package - meaning that must take care of the functions/libraries etc...)


Best regards,
Horia.

Because? Define "a solution".

I might not do it that way, but I don't see
why it wouldn't work.
