Explanation

profiles frank is the correct Solaris command to list the rights profiles directly assigned to a specific user. It queries the user's profile assignments and outputs them to stdout, making it the standard tool for exactly this administrative task.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (userattr profiles frank) - userattr is a real command for querying user attributes, but its purpose is general attribute lookups, not profile enumeration; it's also not the idiomatic tool for this task.
• B (profiles -p frank) - The -p flag does not exist for the profiles command in this context; invalid syntax.
• C (useratter -p frank) - "useratter" is not a real command at all; this is a misspelling of userattr combined with an invalid flag.

Memory tip: Think of it as asking the system directly - profiles <username> reads naturally as "show me the profiles for this user." No flags needed; just the command and the username.
