Hi, Solaris has the "Role Based Access Control " ( RBAC ) system for allowing users access to admin functions , base on the role the user is assigned.
there is four (4) shell-level commands that can be used to run commands with the elevated access permission. pfexec pfsh pfcsh pfksh The standard shell's does not act upon the RBAC profile in /etc/user_attr You can also make additional Role-accounts similar to the root- role in OpenSolaris. Create a role-account "netadm" give this account the "network-management" profile and assign the role to the intended useraccounts so that they can "su" to the "netadm" role. Here is a pointer to the manual: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-3321/prbactm-1?l=en&a=view This message posted from opensolaris.org
