[OpenIndiana-discuss] User roles and acting as root

[Gabriele Bulfon]

Thanx for your reply,
I understand the security issue.
But, is it so much more secure when you can just sudo commands?
Where is the difference?
Thanx

give your user the Primary Administrator profile and then assign him a
profile shell like pfksh.
need i say this is insecure?

Hi, I was trying to figure out how to let the default install user (sonicle, in my case) be able
to run commands as root completely, with no pfexec nor sudo.
The user has a root role, in the user_attr file.
If not possible, how can I enable root login normally?
I tried commenting out the "root" role from user_attr, but the system went into maintenance mode....
I had to put it back to have the machine normal again.
