About the Oracle Solaris Account Management BUI

You can access this BUI using the Oracle Solaris Dashboard. This BUI supports all the functionalities of useradd, usermod, userdel, roleadd, rolemod, passwd, and login commands through its interactive menu. It is included in the system/management/webui/webui-usermgr package.
