ptest (Solaris 5.10) Changes Tracking Log

User & Group Change @ 11/02/2010

New account pwbc_dba has been added for DB system administrative purpose, new group dbadmin is also added so other user login can participate DB administration without knowing pwbc_dba account.

groupadd dbadmin
useradd -m -g dbadmin -G root,it,other pwbc_dba
passwd pwbc_dba
usermod –s /bin/bash pwbc_dba (to use .profile to define env)

The password is the same as current mysql account. All database administrative tasks such as installation, upgrade etc should be done under pwbc_dba.

15/03/2010 pwbc_dba has been replaced by user mysql that is required by MySQL installation.

System $PATH Change @ 11/03/2010

New export has been added into /etc/profile so gtar and make are available system-wide.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is added to address MySQL compilation error due to libstdc++.so.6 not found.

export PATH="$PATH:/opt/csw/bin:/usr/ccs/bin"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/lib:/usr/sfw/lib"

Change comment has been added on the source file. Future $PATH change will be recorded by comment and will not be added in here.

daemon:x:1:1::/:
bin:x:2:2::/usr/bin:
sys:x:3:3::/:
