[SunHELP] help on script writing

[DAUBIGNE Sebastien - BOR]

"su - user -c command" might not work if the original user is not root.
You have to supply the password in that case, hopefully.

The 2 solutions are :
-	Use the set-uid-bit for the script (be carefull as there are many
security holes with environnement variables : PATH, IFS, etc...)
-	Use the suggested "sudo"  way.

	Otherwise 'su - user -c command' might work.
