HOWTO: fping using profiles(pfexec) Solaris10

["Mike Rowell" <Mike.Rowell (at) Rightmove.co.uk>]

There are 3 files that need to be updated so that fping can be executed
as root (uid=0) on Solaris by a named user, in this case the hobbit
user.

 

The three files in question are,

 

/etc/user_attr

/etc/security/exec_attr

/etc/security/prof_attr

 

These have been updated with the following lines

 

/etc/user_attr

 

hobbit::::profiles=Hobbit Commands

 

/etc/security/exec_attr

 

Hobbit Commands:solaris:cmd:::/usr/local/sbin/fping:uid=0

 

/etc/security/prof_attr

 

Hobbit Commands:::Hobbit Commands:
