Some quick miscellaneous comments: It says 'your laptop'. I feel that's a little too specific - readers may interpret that as meaning you can't use other types of computer. Page 10. I wouldn't introduce svcadm before mentioning svcs. Page 11/12 modifying NWAM. Step 5. You don't restart the service, you enable it again. Page 13 'Manually configuring a wired connection'. Step 2. Should disable come before enable? Step 3. So how could you tell that bge0 is the wired interface? I mean, I know that the wired broadcom and ath0 the wireless atheros, but how does a new user work that out? Page 14/15 Manually configuring wireless. Same as above. Step 6, is that "connect-wifi-e" or "connect-wifi -e"? Page 25 Monitoring ZFS disk space. It should be explained that ZFS quotas are something different to normal filesystem quotas. It may be better not to refer to them as quotas at all. Something like 'You can limit the amount of space used by a ZFS filesystem by ...'. (And a note that snapshots count against the limit too.) Page 27 'How to see available NFS shares' Confused me. What's missing from the text is that 'localserver' is the host that you want to query to see what filesystems it's exporting. Otherwise it appears in the command for no reason. (And would 'remoteserver' be a better name?) -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
