Indeed.

I haven't run S10 in a long while, but I know in CX:CE, "Primary
Administrator" is not in prof_attr & exec_attr by default.  Users should
check.  On SX:CE its actually added by a package that would seem
unrelated (can't remember which at the moment); S10 is probly the same way:

$ grep Primary /etc/security/prof_attr
Primary Administrator:::Can perform all administrative
tasks:auths=solaris.*,solaris.grant;help=RtPriAdmin.html

If its not there, add it:

echo "Primary Administrator:suser:cmd:::*:uid=0;gid=0" >>
/etc/security/exec_attr
echo "Primary Administrator:::Can perform all administrative
tasks:auths=solaris.*,solaris.grant;help=RtPriAdmin.html" >>
/etc/security/prof_attr

benr.
