Q3 Single choice

You have a legacy non-privilege aware program which runs as root to be able to open a privileged port.
Now that you have upgraded the system to Solaris 10 you want to take advantage of privileges. You can either run the program as root with fewer privileges, or you can run the program as daemon with additional privileges.

Why is it preferred to run the program as daemon with added privileges?

  • A

    root is not able to drop privileges.

  • B

    root owns most of the system files.

  • C

    daemon has preconfigured profiles for this kind of privileges.

  • D

    root is able to regain dropped privileges using the ppriv command.
