    In our environment we are using weblogic as a webserver and we used to start/stop the weblogic server by sudo.

    We heard RBAC is new feature in AIX6.1 and we are testing with the same to start/stop the weblogic instead of sudo. Actually webserver using previlleged ports 80/443 ,so i have given privilege PV_NET_PORT and even i have tried with PV_ROOT privilege also ,not helped.

    syntax used:

    mkauth webstart

    setsecattr -c accessauths=webstart innateprivs=PV_NET_PORT secflags=FSF_EPS /app/elm849/webserv/ELMDMO/bin/startPIA.sh

    mkrole authorizations=webstart webstartrole

    chuser roles=webstartrole psoft

    setkst

    su - psoft

    swrole webstartrole

    above steps have been used ,but not helped.....

    Anyone have experienced about RBAC ,pls help....
