Me again :-( Again, 2008.05 with snv_90 on top (but same in 2008.05 vanilla (I think))
I was dipping my toe into NWAM, and was surprised that the user that I created during the 2008.05 install process could manipulate NWAM (and subsequently other) SVC-arbited processes through svcadm without the need for prefixing commands with pfexec. Is this right? I was under the impression that this user could, only through user_attr assume the role of root; and thus be granted temporary administrative rights. By svcadm now apparently working without pfexec, I become confused - where is it defined that this user has some de facto admin rights, and what determines when you need to use pfexec or not (apart from ordinary UNIX privileges)? Is it somewhere under /etc/security? I looked briefly... Any pointers gratefully received. Thanks... Sean.
