Good advice. I would re-iterate that you probably really don't want to do this, but if you're going to anyway, you're looking at either doing what was suggested above, or doing an suid thing (bad plan). So, you're basically left with what was said above, in which case I would add that you may want to just grep out the relevant info from the logfile rather than copy the entire thing. Make sure that you have proper rules to grab _only_ the info you would want Mr. Evil Hacker to see. Even if this is on an intranet, I don't know about you, but I don't trust my users anymore than absolutely necessary, soooo...
