Tuesday September 12, 2006 RTFM: Setting the time and date from a local zone.
So. It turns out I went to a lot of needless-overly-complicated-thought-process-work figuring out a way for a local zone to login to a global zone and run a command, within an RBAC profile to automatically set the date and time of a Global Zone.
If only I had just done this:
global# zonecfg -z localzone
zonecfg:localzone> set limitpriv="default,sys_time"
zonecfg:localzone> commit
zonecfg:localzone> exit
zonecfg:localzone> set limitpriv="default,sys_time"
zonecfg:localzone> commit
zonecfg:localzone> exit
I would then have been all set to just run `ntpdate` or something to set the date/time from the localzone.
RTFM really has it's place. Something I should do more often, I guess.
At least my last experience was good some usefull experience that I've been able to re-use that's not related to setting the time and date, but rather giving people limited access to run specific pre-configured commands in the global zone, from the local zone, without having an account on the global zone, and without opening the global zone to any overt risk.
