As I learned a new command "pfexec" is introduced (at least) in Solaris.
Is there a similar, advanced "sudo" available for Linuxes (e.g. Ubuntu) available as well?

How do I install it?

What does "pfexec" do?

"Rights profiles" are created and assigned to roles,
where a profile is a collection of security attributes,
then the roles are applied to users.

Faced with the choice between changing one's mind and proving that there is
no need to do so, almost everyone gets busy on the proof.

Based on previous contributions from JH, I don't think he was being
particularly lazy with his question. I would prefer to imagine that he was
trying to point out to the original poster that it would have been helpful
to provide a very brief description of "pfexec" in his first posting.
