su and run script problem
Hi, it's there a way to for me to su to run script?
It seems like if i put

Code:
su - <user1>
cd <path>
touch <file1>

It will stop at su without running the cd & touch command.

I tried that, however it is not running the program. (No files are created)

Code:
su - <user1> -c /path/touch.sh

Hi, it works actually, i just have to put the full path inside my touch.sh.

If i need to run a shutdown script also that need to put in user name & password in the script, how do i do that?

Inside my touch.sh
Code:
touch <path>/log.txt      -> working
echo `date` > <path>/log.txt     -> working
<path>/adstrtal.sh <user> <password> -> not working

Code:
# touch.sh
You are running adstrtal.sh version 115.19

Enter the APPS username:

I need it to run without human intervention. Thanks.Smilie

I figure that out, for future reference:

Code:
touch <path>/log.txt      
echo `date` > <path>/log.txt     
<path>/run.sh

run.sh (chmod)
Code:
<path>/adstpall.sh <user> <pass>
