The /etc/security/policy.conf file provides a way of granting specific rights profiles, specific authorizations, and specific privileges to all users of a system. The relevant entries in the file consist of key=value pairs:
AUTHS_GRANTED=authorizations – Refers to one or more authorizations.
AUTH_PROFS_GRANTED=rights profiles – Refers to one or more authenticated rights profiles.
PROFS_GRANTED=rights profiles – Refers to one or more rights profiles that are not authenticated.
CONSOLE_USER=Console User– Refers to the Console User rights profile. This profile is delivered with a convenient set of authorizations for the console user. You can customize this profile.
The following example shows some rights values from a policy.conf database:
## AUTHS_GRANTED= AUTH_PROFS_GRANTED= CONSOLE_USER=Console User PROFS_GRANTED=Basic Solaris User #PRIV_DEFAULT=basic #PRIV_LIMIT=all
