Hey all, I'm attempting to use OpenSolaris 2008.05 as my work environment, and I'm having some major problems. Took 3 hours to get networking working with a static IP (without NWAM and DHCP- not good.). I think I've hit every pothole possible, and I built this machine specifically to be solaris-friendly. But fortunately I have Google, and it has saved me up to now.
I'm getting errors with Python programs, specifically when trying to use the IPS package programs. Here's an example: pfexec pkg Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pkg", line 52, in ? import urllib2 File "/usr/lib/python2.4/urllib2.py", line 91, in ? import ftplib File "/usr/lib/python2.4/ftplib.py", line 45, in ? import socket File "/usr/lib/python2.4/socket.py", line 45, in ? import _socket ImportError: ld.so.1: python2.4: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/lib/libnsl.so.1: symbol MD5Init: referenced symbol not found I see stuff about libnsl and MD5 in there (I'm also getting problems with MD5 not working with pkg-get), but I don't know what's going on. I can't really find any details about libnsl. The md5sum command works, but I get errors like this from pkg-get: pkg-get -i vlc WARNING: gpg not found No existing install of CSWvlc found. Installing... digest: failed to find any cryptographic provider,please check with your system administrator: CKR_OK md5 utility temporarily non-functional assuming local file vlc-0.7.2,REV=2004.10.07-SunOS5.8-i386-CSW.pkg.gz valid to use Analysing special files...

On an unrelated note, where can I go to figure out what build this is, technically? What is the relationship between the different Solaris distros? Thanks for any help! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
