Order of Rights Profiles

The commands in rights profiles are interpreted in order. The first occurrence of a command is the only version of the command that is used for that role or user. Different rights profiles can include the same command. Therefore, the order of rights profiles in a list of profiles is important. The rights profile with the most capabilities should be listed first.

Rights profiles are listed in the Solaris Management Console GUI and in the prof_attr file. In the Solaris Management Console GUI, the rights profile with the most capabilities should be the top profile in a list of assigned rights profiles. In the prof_attr file, the rights profile with the most capabilities should be the first in a list of supplementary profiles. This placement ensures that a command with security attributes is listed before that same command without security attributes.
