i'm working in the same machine in this machine i have several users and
directories some of them are c-shell and some k-shell
i have problem because when i'm running script in c-shell cs-customers) it start to
perform object in cobol which going through several directories and
reading files . the problem is :
while i'm running the script above (cs-customers) he cannont read the files because i need to change their premissions.problem i need to connect to root
account (in the same machine) and change premissins of those files.
from my point of view i realy do'nt care if i need to run 2 different script bacause i still in the same problem ,if i have script i need to su him to root account for changing mod of files
any solutions
i think that might be here easy solution because i'm working abount one machine all the time
I'm sorry If you felt I had a bad reaction. Don't misunderstand me, that's not the case Smilie

As I told you before, I would use either of:
- The sudo tool.
- Telnet automation (https://www.unix.com/showthread.php?t...ghlight=telnet).
- ssh with digital certificates.
Personally, I would choose the first one, as I mentioned before.

i'm realy don't want so much to do this is there any other way?
2. the link that you attached to me i do'nt know what is the ip how shel i know that? besides it's look like a script to connect to other machine while i'm working at the same machine all the time
is there any other way to write the passwd it the same script to variable and he will connect such as :
"starting to search..."

Well, if you don't want to use sudo, try this:

Code:
# The IP is loopback, so that you connect to yourself.
IP=127.0.0.1
UNAME=root
PWD=rootpassword
echo "Connecting to $IP as root..."
(
    sleep 2 
    echo "$UNAME"; sleep 2
    echo "$PWD"; sleep 2
    echo "ksh cs-search"   # Commands here.
    sleep 2
) | telnet "$IP"
echo "End of root session."
if test -s b.log
........ 
fi
........

I hope this is what you want.

i'm sorry grial you have to be very patient with me bacause
i didn't understand how i know my ip ? is there any command that display all this ? and if you be so kind to explain me a little bit about the script what is exactly the talnet ?
when you wrote connecting to yourself you mean " because i'm working on the same machine" write?
thaks a lot for being patient and for quick response

You do not need to know your IP in this case. But if you want to, execute:

ifconfig -a

I think you should have a look to some tutorials and manuals about unix (and networking)... Smilie

hi grial thank you thank you ....... itws work Smilie
i just want to understand if i donwt need the ip how should i do that
i wrote
UNAME=root
PWD=cnfg777
(
sleep 2
echo "$UNAME"; sleep 2
echo "$PWD"; sleep 2
ksh cs-search
sleep 2)
(without telnet) i see that is not run the cs-search
question 2 :
after he finishing the cs-search he comeback to the script and enviroment that call to him ?
question 3 Smiliethis is the last question)
if i have other users in the system and all of them ofcourse working on the same machine it's not disturber them right ?
it's behaving regular as if i was doing this process not automaticly?
thaks for huge help and for great patient!!!
you're rock!!!

It's a bit difficult for me to understand you... You need to improve your english... Smilie
If
Code:
UNAME=root
PWD=cnfg777
(
sleep 2
echo "$UNAME"; sleep 2
echo "$PWD"; sleep 2 
ksh cs-search
sleep 2)

works it means you are executing as root and it's nonsense to execute such a thing. So:
Code:
ksh cs-search

alone will also work...
The code I posted before will work if you are executing the first script as a "normal" user and want "cs-search" run as root.

One more thing: Do not post your real user and password!
