usermod - Invalid Key error

807557Sep 29 2006 — edited Apr 2 2007

I am trying to install Oracle 10gR2 on my Solaris zone. It says that I need the oracle user to have a projid=100 (group.dba).

I created group.dba in /etc/project using the projadd command. Here is the entry:
group.dba:100:Oracle Default:::

When I run id -p as oracle, I get:
uid=1002(oracle) gid=100(oinstall) projid=3(default)

I tried to do a usermod -K "project=group.dba" oracle. I got the following error:
UX: usermod: ERROR: Invalid key.

I've looked at several documentation pages on assigning projects and using key=value. I also checked the man pages for usermod and user_attr. First, none of them tell you to use quotations, although many google searches and samples show that you do.

Please help me see what I am failing to see.

Best!

Frank
