By default root login on solaris disabled and you cannot login as root. ( which is amazing for security ) but sometimes you need to enable this login and to do that follow the below steps :
- after login to privileged user can access on Solaris switch user to root.
- vi etc/user_attr
#
# The system provided entries are stored in different files
# under “/etc/user_attr.d”. They should not be copied to this file.
#
# Only local changes should be stored in this file.
# This line should be kept in this file or it will be overwritten.
#
oracle::::type=normal;project=user.oracle;defaultpriv=basic,net_privaddr
type should be normal.
and to enable SSH for root user you have to do the following :
vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config
PermitRootLogin = yes
vi /etc/default/login
#CONSOLE =/dev/login|console
rolemod -K type=normal root
