How to create a script that can goto a different dir also to run promp 1

[ann124]

Hi,
I need to know how I'll be able to write a script that can goto a different dir where I don't have access to read,write and execute and also to run a commandline prompt in that dir with one file whose path has to be specified in that command.

Will I be able to do this?

Any ideas or solutions are welcome.

You will need root or sudo privileges.

or the command/script needs the "set uid" flag to execute all commands inside the script as the user (root) the scriptfile belongs to.
See man chmod -> chmod 4755 script

Best Regards, Franz
