The 'profiles' and 'authorizations' are added to the user by 'useradd',
and activated by 'passwd'.
So the easist way to make a non-root user using wificonfig is:
#useradd -A solaris.network.wifi.config,solaris.network.wifi.wep (or -P
... depending on how the profiles are defined) /username
/#passwd /username
