Re: what is the num value of "s" in -rwsr-x--- (chmod)?
That means it is suid. It runs under the effective user id of the owner of the
file. To make it this way you do a
chmod 4755 foo.pl
I am sure there are more details to this, so consult the man pages for more
info. (Maybe I should say consult the info pages :)
