Is it possible to remove the lock of consoles in Solaris?

  • 772

I installed Solaris 11 with just consoles. Just like with Linux, you can switch between consoles using the Alt-F1 to Alt-F6 key combos. Great. Only, each time you do so, it asks you for your password.

Is there a way to remove the lock on consoles so I don't have to re-enter my password 10 times a minute?

console

    Yes, this should do it, if run as root or with appropriate privileges:

    svccfg -s vtdaemon setprop options/secure=false
svcadm refresh vtdaemon
svcadm restart vtdaemon
