There's a pam_wheel module for solaris. Works well.
The author's site seems to be gone atm, so I've put it up at:
<http://oneiros.darkspire.net/solaris/pam_wheel-1.3.tar.gz>

If you're looking to allow certain people access to specific commands and
arguments that need to be run as root, check out sudo.
