I created the following script:
ps -ef | grep $$
sleep 60

Let say the script is own by user1.  Then I issued +x script and +s =
script.

On another session I login as user2.  Then execute the above script.  I =
noticed that the result of ps -ef | grep $$ show that user2 execute ps =
-ef  command and not user1.  Also if I issued ps -ef | grep sleep, the =
sleep command is executed by user2.   What did I do wrong?

Thanks,
Elly
