There have been a rash of recently filed bugster CR's and doo bugs regarding the fact that progrmas which depend on the "Console User" profile being set properly is not working as expected.
Refer to: - bugster #6885612 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6885612 - bugster #6885815 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6885815 - bugster #6886416 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6886416 - bugster #6886849 http://bt2ws.central.sun.com/CrPrint?id=6886849 - doo #11620 http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=11620 Problem In short, this causes problems with running programs like NWAM, configuring printers, being able to run the GNOME CD burning application brasero, and it causes the shutdown dialog to not work properly. A workaround is to modify /etc/user_attr so users that need the "Console User" profile are assigned that profile directly. For example, if you add a line to the file as follows, then the "username" specified will have "Console User" privileges and these programs should then work when logged in as that user. username::::type=normal;profiles=Console User Brian _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
