Solaris, grant user to kill another process
the task is grant user1 to kill another (for example user2) process. My steps:
by root:
Code:
usermod -P "Process Management" user1
login user1
user1@server (~) pfexec kill <PID>

the result is:
k
Code:
sh: <PID>:  not found

or
Code:
user1@server (~) pfexec pkill <PID>

the result: nothing happens, still user2 process in ps -ef

Code:
user1, user2 default shell /usr/bin/bash

What's is the problem?

------ Post updated 07-20-18 at 02:59 PM ------

Problem is solved:

Someone change the permission on /usr/bin/kill (-r-sr-xr-x 17 root bin 134 Jan 22 2005 kill)

Should be: -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 134 Jan 19 2018 kill

dspam_merge

dspam_merge(1)							       DSPAM							    dspam_merge(1)

NAME

       dspam_merge - merge several users' metadata into a composite

SYNOPSIS

       dspam_merge [--profile=PROFILE]	user1 user2 ... userN -o username

DESCRIPTION

       dspam_merge  merges  several users' metadata into a single user's dictionary. This tool is designed to create global users and seeded data.
       The hit sounds for each token and per-user totals are added together to produce a single composite  dataset.  After  creating  a  composite
       user, dspam_clean should be run with the -p option to clean up extraneous data.

       NOTE : Merges may take a considerable amount of time. This could potentially increase the load on the server or even slow down the delivery
       of email. A merge should only be performed when the system is fairly acquiesce.

OPTIONS

	--profile=PROFILE
	      Specify a storage profile from dspam.conf. The storage profile selected will be used for all database connectivity.  See	dspam.conf
	      for more information.

	user1 user2 ... userN
	      A list of users to merge together.

	-o username
	      The target user which will be created (if necessary). This user will contain the composite generated by the merge.

EXAMPLES

       dspam_merge dick jane spot -o ralph

       Merges the metadata dictionaries of dick, jane, and spot into a single composite under the user ralph

EXIT VALUE

       0      Operation was successful.
       other  Operation resulted in an error.
