adding sticky bit for sstat  fixed this.  :)

I don't think you set the sticky bit, you set the setuid bit which means everyone is now able to run sstat as if they are root.

That does not strike me as a good idea.

The man page for sstat https://slurm.schedmd.com/sstat.html says:

For the root user, the sstat command displays job status data for

any job running on the system.

For the non-root user, the sstat output is limited to the user's jobs.

So there's no way to (safely) do that I'm afraid.

All the best, Chris
