Yes, giving away "root access" in non-global zones is very safe. There is no way to escape from a non-global zone to another non-global zone or to the global zone. So even the root user can only modify settings in his own zone. BTW, there are a number of good articles on zones/containers at: http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/zones/ http://www.sun.com/blueprints/browsedate.html Rayson Any guidance greatly appreciated!

[zones-discuss] guidance for beginner
Hello, I have to set up 2 X T2000 one day next week for 9 users. Ideally there should be 8 sun boxes running solaris 9 or 10, so that for 2-3 weeks the users can install applications as root and klunk about gaining some hands on. These users already have a home dir. Could I have some high level guidance on how to proceed? I have printed the 14 page man page for zonemgr 1.8. which looks like it is going to be the solution. But in general what should I shoot for? I can avoid giving root access to the users with sudo. But does that mean giving them zones will be easier or safer? Any guidance greatly appreciated!
