Doesn't setting setuid bit imply it must run as if you are user seb?
How make it do this?
Something between all and nearly all Unix-like operating systems do
not honor SETUID for scripts. For security reasons.
I think it's actually that the interpreter itself is not setuid.
I think if you set /bin/sh to be setuid, it might work.
Or you might have to run the setuid enabled /bin/sh to execute the
script rather than relying on the kernel to call out the interpreter itself
