Paul, Check if you're still assigned the Primary Administrator profile by looking in /etc/user_attr. For example, here's my entry: > bleonard at opensolaris:/etc/security$ cat /etc/user_attr | grep bleonard > bleonard::::type=normal;roles=root;profiles=Primary > Administrator;defaultpriv=basic,dtrace_user,dtrace_proc,dtrace_kernel /Brian
