Custom menu items, who do they run as ?

I have taken the showenv.cgi and placed it into a custom menu item in TS 6.5 Solaris. I made a change to touch a
file /tmp/foo

When I do that the ownership is iwui and nobody. I thought custom menu items would impersonate the user and follow
my group and user info ? IIRC, it worked that way in 5.5

iwcgi_wrapper.cgi my dear friend.

To impersonate the user start with /iw-bin/iwcgi_wrapper.cgi/your_script.ipl

we're in a 5.5 to 6.5 migration, and just noticed the same thing. In 5.5, your custom menu item will always be called via the iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi, that takes care of impersonation.

In 6.5 that is not a automatism any more, and moreover, the documentation DOESN'T mention iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi at all any more (uicg.650a.cg.pdf), apart from being in the setuid list (appendix F, ts.650a.admin.unix.pdf)

Bizarre.
Oh, if you use the wdpro_menu.ipl wrapper (that emulates (most of) 5.5) then iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi is used automatically.
