The difference between root and other user.

It seems that some functions like ThreadCtl() can’t be used by other users.
Could I distribute other users with the priority of root can let them use
these functions? How to do it?

Thanks!

Owner of binary should be root (see ‘use chown’) and “uid on execution” bit setted (see ‘use
chmod’… ‘chmod +s your_exe_file’…)

however be careful - the root owned executable should not be able to fake a
superuser!
