I have come across a situation where I need to temporarly change the user profile in the middle of a script. I would prefer to do this than to change ownership of files to allow the script to be able to read them. I don't know whose files I will be reading when the script runs, however I need to be able to read files from /home/*/Mail on a user by user basis. Is this possible?? Jeff Means CIO for PicoTech.NET
