    Thanks to all for the suggestions. He didn't make it clear what he was
    trying to do...but I was trying to figure out if it was even possible,
    and my own research seemed to come to the same conclusion (for the most
    part).

    Thanks.

    Although, another friend of mine suggested that I could mount an fs with
    the uid=uid option to possibly accomplish something similar.....don't
    know about that though, haven't bothered trying it yet.

    Thanks again,
    Frank
