Why are you prefering Linux users and not MS Windows users? Or maybe Mac OS X users? I don't really understand why somebody is speaking about Linux users only. Is Linux so much better in usability than other platforms? Or has wider users base than others? I don't think so. Leave clonning of GNU world on Nexenta, it's their job. Try to find better ways then just clonning, duplicating etc. > Wild idea: Maybe in this case we need an implementation of sudo > that's configured by and a subset of RBAC so that new users graduate > to RBAC over time? > Yes, implement sudo as "wrapper" around Solaris solutions, why not. This is good point. Best regards, Milan P.S.: The most of Linux users started as MS Windows users or UNIX users... They needed to learn how to use that "strange" new OS - GNU/Linux. _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
