. When the ___________________ mode is set on an executable file (e.g. passwd program), it allows the program to assume the identity of the specified userid, instead of the person running the program.

Acid,

Now look what you did... you made someone run away. Now that wasn't very nice.

I mean sure, it was funny and all, and maybe I would even consider doing the same thing, but still not very nice

I wasn't trying to be mean.. its just kind of crazy that this is a technical site to ask real problems, not to fill in the blank for some question your trying to answer.

Oh well...
