Hi all,

Looking to set up my user account on a Solaris 11 11/11 box as the 'Primary Administrator' as I used to on Solaris 10. However it appears that the Primary Administrator role no longer exists. So I'm wondering what the new profile is for allowing a user to perform root commands with pfexec. Thanks!

Check these: and vice-versa.

Yeah, I'm currently using 'su -' to become the root role. I just prefer to not have to take on a root shell. I prefer to just prepend 'pfexec' to any commands I need to be performed as the root role.
