    hi...

    i have an issue where i'm trying to run a perl script without the use of the
    'perl' before the script.

    i'd like to be user 'foo' and be able to '/cat.pl' and have the script run.
    this works ok when i'm 'root'. however, i get a permission err.

    $ ./svncopy.pl
    ./svncopy.pl: permission denied

    i understand that this is a permission prob, but i can't figure out how to
    resolve it.

    'cat.pl' is owned by user 'foo' and has perms of 755
    the dir for 'cat.pl' is owned by user 'foo'...

    any ideas/thoughts on what to do to resolve this....

    thanks...

    -bruce
