    Suid only works with compiled programs and perl scripts, no other
    scripting language. (thats what I found when googl'ing)
    But I'm using perl, and indeed, they are running correctly with
    set-uid.
    The only thing that doesn't work is chown, because this is something
    the root must do and I wont setuid my perl-script as root.
