System Administration Commands | smprofile(1M) |
| smprofile - manage profiles in the prof_attr and exec_attr databases |
SYNOPSIS
| /usr/sadm/bin/smprofile subcommand [ auth_args] -- [subcommand_args] |
|
The smprofile command manages one or more profiles in the prof_attr(4) or exec_attr(4) databases in the local /etc files name service or a NIS or NIS+ name service.
subcommands
|
smprofile subcommands are:
-
add
- Adds a new profile (right) to the prof_attr(4) database. To add a profile, the administrator must
have the solaris.profmgr.write authorization.
-
delete
- Deletes a profile from the prof_attr(4) database, deletes all associated entries from the exec_attr(4) database, and deletes the assigned profile from the user_attr(4) database. To delete a profile, the administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.execattr.write and solaris.profmgr.write authorization.
-
list
- Lists one or more profiles from the prof_attr(4) or exec_attr(4) databases.
To list a profile, the administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.read authorization.
-
modify
- Modifies a profile in the prof_attr(4) database. To modify a profile, the administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.write authorization.

The smprofile authentication arguments, auth_args, are derived from the smc(1M) arg set and are the same regardless of which subcommand you
use. The smprofile command requires the Solaris Management Console to be initialized for the command to succeed (see smc(1M)). After rebooting the Solaris Management Console
server, the first Solaris Management Console connection might time out, so you might need to retry the command.
The subcommand-specific options, subcommand_args, must come after the auth_args and must be separated from them by the -- option.
auth_args
|
The valid auth_args are -D, -H, -l, -p, -r, and -u; they are all optional. If no auth_args are specified, certain defaults will be assumed and the
user may be prompted for additional information, such as a password for authentication purposes. These letter options can also be specified by their equivalent option words preceded by a double dash. For example, you can use either -D or --domain with the domain argument.
- -D | --domain domain
- Specifies the default domain that you want to manage. The syntax of domain is type:/host_name/domain_name, where type is nis, nisplus, dns, ldap, or file; host_name is the name of the machine that serves the
domain; and domain_name is the name of the domain you want to manage. (Note: Do not use nis+ for nisplus.)
If you do not specify this option, the Solaris Management Console assumes the file default domain on whatever server you choose to manage, meaning that changes are local to the server. Toolboxes can change the domain on a tool-by-tool basis; this option specifies the domain for
all other tools.
- -H | --hostname host_name:port
- Specifies the host_name and port to which you want to connect. If you do not specify a port, the system connects to the default port, 898. If you do not specify host_name:port, the Solaris Management Console connects to the local host on port 898. You may still have to choose a toolbox to load into
the console. To override this behavior, use the smc(1M) -B option, or set your console preferences to load a "home toolbox" by default.
- -l | --rolepassword role_password
- Specifies the password for the role_name. If you specify a role_name but do not specify a role_password, the system prompts you to supply a role_password. Passwords specified on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.
- -p | --password password
- Specifies the password for the user_name. If you do not specify a password, the system prompts you for one. Passwords specified
on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.
- -r | --rolename role_name
- Specifies a role name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, no role is assumed.
- -u | --username user_name
- Specifies the user name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, the user identity running the console process is assumed.
- --
- This option is required and must always follow the preceding options. If you do not enter the preceding options, you must still enter the -- option.
|
subcommand_args
|
Note: Descriptions and other arg options that contain white spaces must be enclosed in double quotes.
- For subcommand add:
- -a addauth1 -a addauth2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the authorization name(s) to add to the new profile. The administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.write
authorization and must have the corresponding "grant" authorization. A "grant" authorization is one in which the lowest component of the authorization name is replaced by the word grant. For example, to grant some profile the solaris.role.write
authorization, the administrator needs that authorization and also the solaris.role.grant authorization. For more information on granting authorizations, see auth_attr(4).
- -d description
- Specifies the description of the new profile.
- -h
- (Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.
- -m html_help
- Specifies the HTML help file name for the new profile. The help file name must be put in the /usr/lib/help/profiles/locale/C directory.
- -n name
- Specifies the name of the new profile.
- -p addprof1 -p addprof2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the supplementary profile name(s) to add to the new profile.
- For subcommand delete:
- -h
- (Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.
- -n name
- Specifies the name of the profile you want to delete.
- For subcommand list:
- -h
- (Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.
- -l
- (Optional) Displays the detailed output for each profile in a block of key:value pairs, followed by a blank line that delimits each profile block. Each key:value pair is displayed on a separate line. All the attributes associated with a profile from the prof_attr and exec_attr databases are displayed. If you do not specify this option, only the specified profile name(s) and associated profile description(s)
are displayed.
- -n name1 -n name2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the profile(s) that you want to display. If you do not specify a profile name, all profiles are displayed.
- For subcommand modify:
- -a addauth1 -a addauth2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the authorization name(s) to add to the profile. The administrator must currently have been granted each of the specified authorizations
and must have the ability to grant each of those authorizations to other users or roles. For more information on granting authorizations, see auth_attr(4).
- -d description
- (Optional) Specifies the new description of the profile.
- -h
- (Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.
- -m html_help
- (Optional) Specifies the new HTML help file name of the profile. If you change this name, you must accordingly rename the help file name entered in the /usr/lib/help/profiles/locale/C
directory.
- -n name
- Specifies the name of the profile you want to modify.
- -p addprof1 -p addprof2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the supplementary profile name(s) to add to the profile. The administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.assign
authorization to add any profile and the solaris.profmgr.delegate authorization to add any profile that has been assigned to the authenticated user.
- -q delprof1 -q delprof2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the supplementary profile name(s) to delete from the profile. The administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.assign authorization to delete any profile and the solaris.profmgr.delegate authorization to delete any profile that has been assigned to the authenticated user.
- -r delauth1 -r delauth2 . . .
- (Optional) Specifies the authorization name(s) to delete from the profile. The administrator must have the solaris.profmgr.write
authorization and must have the corresponding "grant" authorization. For more information about "grant" authorizations, see the -a option description for the add subcommand above.

| Example 1. Creating a new profile
|
The following creates a new User Manager profile on the local file system. The new profile description is Manage users and groups, and the authorizations assigned are solaris.admin.usermgr.write and solaris.admin.usermgr.read.
The supplementary profile assigned is Operator. The help file name is RtUserMgmt.html.
|
./smprofile add -H myhost -p mypasswd -u root -- -n "User Manager" \
-d "Manage users and groups" -a solaris.admin.usermgr.write \
-a solaris.admin.usermgr.read -p Operator -m RtUserMgmt.html
