Operating Systems AIX Create another root account Post 302924452 by bobochacha29 on Sunday 9th of November 2014 08:35:30 PM

I have got a problem.
I have added all default roles to my user ( root2 )
Code:
lsuser -a roles root2
root2 roles=AccountAdmin,so,FSAdmin,sa,BackupRestore,DomainAdmin,SecPolicy,SysBoot,SysConfig,isso

but this user can't execute this command
Code:
bootlist -m normal -o

Then I maked "testrole" and added that command to it.
The problem is : when I "swrole" to testrole ( only one role ), I could execute that command. But when I "swrole" to testrole and these default role ( 11 roles in total ) , I couldn't execute that command anymore SmilieSmilieSmilie.

Somebody knows how to fix this ???

NAME
userdel - Delete a user account and related files SYNOPSIS
userdel [-r] login DESCRIPTION
The userdel command modifies the system account files, deleting all entries that refer to login. The named user must exist. The options which apply to the userdel command are: -r Files in the user's home directory will be removed along with the home directory itself and the user's mail spool. Files located in other file systems will have to be searched for and deleted manually. FILES
/etc/passwd - user account information /etc/shadow - secure user account information /etc/group - group information CAVEATS
userdel will not allow you to remove an account if the user is currently logged in. You must kill any running processes which belong to an account that you are deleting. You may not remove any NIS attributes on an NIS client. This must be performed on the NIS server. SEE ALSO
