I'm having a bit of trouble understanding some things about the pkg
system.

man pkg give a lot of info, but some things I'm not finding.

what does an `authority' designation look like (the URL).
Where is that set if not command line (pkg -a AUTH)?

I did not find info about where to find any configuration files for
pkg. 

Also was not at all clear (to me) how to add a new addon authority.
I mean in a configuration... not from command line.  I did see the
`-a' flag but no real description of what the URL would consist of.

For example, I'm running opensol-11 installed from the official CD.
Whatever authority it sets up, doesn't know anything about the pkg
`lynx'.


Although I saw on google that it is available in a SUN pkg somewhere.

How would I tell pkg how to find that and install it.
`pkg search -r lynx' doesn't find it.
