Hi,
Thanx to all who repiled. Thanx to David Mitchell. David this is what I
wanted.

Solution to my problem is to add #!/bin/sh -p in begining of my script. If
the -p flag is present, the shell will not set the effective user and group
IDs to the real user and group IDs.

Thanx

Haresh G. Chandnani
