root account privileges
Mar 30, 2006 12:22 PM

Hi! 
 
I'm a researcher writing a thesis on MLS technology. I'm not a Trusted Solaris user, so many questions may sound silly. 
 
I would like to know if the root account on a Trusted Solaris can change the label of a file or directory. Is root still the all-powerfull, super-user account? 
 
Thanks! 
 
Maxi

Yes....with the proper privs, files/directory labels can be changed from the command line or from the File Manager GUI.
