Others Running a script as owner
Hi All,
I have a script in which the contents of the script can be run only with Admin account (inst1).
the script has connecting to database and performing some routine database admin tasks. This script should be able to execute by non admin (devp2) user, but the script itself should be running as admin user. is there a way to do this? Not sure if we can do this using sticky bit (after granting execute to public on test.sh) tried chmod2777, but no luck, any Advise please? Appreciate your help, Thanks!
OS: AIX 6.1
-rwxr--r-- 1 Inst1 group1 104 Nov 07 16:50 test.sh
user devp2(group: group2) should be able to execute it

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

WARNINGS
script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
