Firstly, could you elaborate on why you're trying to disable it ?

This is Solaris 10 system (because of the _extra.so library) but I will 
answer this anyway since it is a generic question/issue.

Aah, you mean disable softtoken only for certain mechanisms.

The shell interprets the dollar sign, so you have to escape it like this:

cryptoadm disable \
     provider=/usr/lib/security/\$ISA/pkcs11_softtoken_extra.so \
 
mechanism=CKM_RSA_PKCS,CKM_RSA_PKCS_KEY_PAIR_GEN,CKM_RSA_X_509,CKM_MD5_RSA_PKCS
