Subject: [users@httpd] setuid script problem

hi all,

i have created the follwing perl script:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

system "/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/public_html/changenameserver.pl";
print "content-type:text/html \n\n";
print "done";

following is the changenameserver.pl script:

#!/usr/bin/perl

$ENV{'PATH'}="/bin:/usr/bin";
$ENV{'IFS'}=''if $ENV{'IFS'} ne '';

system "service network restart";
exit(1);

i have set "u+x" & "u+s" permissions for the script changenameserver.pl. but still the command "service network restart" is not getting executed when i access this script via web browser.

Following error message i printed to apache error log:
"user cannot control this device"

both the above scripts are owned by user root

can anyone help me in this????


Regards,
Tanmaya
