Perl switch user

[henry214]

How would I switch user on server from a Perl .cgi script?

I have another server login via generic login to create dir/files, and with my cgi script I need to 'su' to the generic login and chmod on all dir/files they created.

I have tried to Telnet from my cgi also , but cannot do it.

I do not have control of generic login admin and admin does not want to make any general changes for the generic login.

I can 'su' and chmod on dir/files via command line.

Thank You
Henry
