hmmm...

I wouldn't support doing this, but you could always use sudo. Allow specific users to,

"sudo su - orartest"

sudo is a package and can be found at:

http://www.courtesan.com/sudo/

I take it you're not running this as root?

Chances are sudo isn't installed. Check out this website on obtaining it:

I am trying this exact same thing with no luck so far. I will keep watching. I posted this same question awhile ago and people said use sudo but without the code. I do not think it works unless you are or can be root which does not work for me.

Sy - see the answers in your other thread re gcc from

http://www.sunfreeware.com

If you are going to complile SUDO you shoud try this:

1. Download GCC from [URL unfurl="true"]www.sunfreeware.com[/URL] or from the Companion CD.  (I use GCC 2.95.3 for Solaris 8, I use to have problems with other versions).  Perform an ls /usr/ccs/bin; make sure there commands in there.

2. Set your CC environment:
    sh/ksh/bash
    CC=gcc ; export CC
    csh/tcsh
    setenv CC gcc

3.  Set your PATH:
    sh/ksh/bash
    PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin ; export PATH
    csh/tcsh
    set path = ($PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin)

4.  Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    sh/ksh/bash
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    csh/tcsh
    setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib:/usr/local/lib

5. ./configure

*note: If you use GCC from the Companion CD, you will probably have to change /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib to /opt/SFW/bin and /opt/SFW/lib.
