Hi Tom,

On docs.sun.com the sharetab(4) page currently resides at

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2251/6n4i7tdcf?a=view

for the Solaris Express release.

But that could change the next time this reference manual is published. 
For a more stable link, you could link to the Solaris9 sharetab(4) page, 
if the content you're referring hasn't changed. From your message, I 
suspect this is not a good approach.

When persistent links is implemented (no ETA but it is being worked on), 
then the URL should be something like

http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-2251/sharetab-4?a=view

forever and always. This is a big issue for our writing community and 
we'll continue to ask for persistent links from the sun.com web team. 
I'll publish updates on the status here as I have them. Thanks for this 
question, it is one I hear a lot, but that hasn't made it to this forum.

Hope this helps,
Michelle
