Hi,

I need to create a user which has equivalent privileges as that of root. Is it possible?

e.g. /dump has the permissions as:
d--------- 102 root root 9728 May 26 17:08 dump

i have 2 users: root and test. dump has access to nobody. But still "root" can login to it but "test" can't. Why is it so?
If i can make "test" as powerful as "root"?

I am using Solaris9 and I have tried to use RBAC by assigning all available profiles and all available authrizations to user "test" but still "test" can't do on filesystem what root can do.

You can do that be editing the /etc/passwd file

for the user dump, change the UID to 0 and GID to 1
that should solve your problem and give user dump the root powers
