Please be a bit more specific.
Do you need to set the setuid bit
info coreutils chmod
The chmod command will allow you to do this.
For example:
$ chmod u+s foo
This sets the suid bit for the foo command.
Please be very careful when you do this because you can open the door to all
sorts of security problems. Remember pandora's box :-)
