Is there something that prevents a setuid root shell script from working? I have a file that is setuid to root with the following lines in it. #!/bin/sh id The id it comes back with is the uid of the user executing the shell script. And yes I am aware that setuid root shell scripts are a security problem bu none-the-less I'd like to find the answer to this problem.
