I am using Perl to create a back-end for a browser-based interface
i am using the system(" ") statement to execute shell commands.

i want to use Expect to automate 'su', and so that i can then execute
root-level commands from the browser itself.

is it possible to do that using Expect, or are any other additional modules
required?

Thanks.
