Given motherboard serial ports (like on a desktop, but very few laptops anymore), can OpenIndiana handle a serial console? What about a serial console on a PCIe card, or worse, on a USB port? Funny note there: at least with Sun/SPARC hardware, you need a null modem cable to connect a terminal,

AFAIK, Zoom is proprietary and only available for Windows, macOS, (some) Linux, and iOS and Android mobile devices. It uses a number of TCP and UDP ports, including TCP ports 80 and 443 (http/https) to get started, but others too. So I think there is probably no open source or Solaris client.

Did you try importing it readonly as described (adding -o readonly=on to the zpool import options) ? Solaris 11.2 has an option to import with a temporary name (unlike importing with a new name), which looks more appropriate. Unfortunately, I don't see that OpenIndiana has that feature.

http://www.c0t0d0s0.org/uploads/vscanclamav.pdf And a very quick look at the Solaris 11 docs leaves me with the impression that Vscan hasn't changed much since OpenSolaris. So it might take a bit more doc reading and fiddling than the above, but probably not too much. Haven't tried it myself,

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] Future of OI

Still, I would like to know how Open Indiana blocks these countries from downloading it. Does anybody know? Don't know for sure, but I think some sites do that by having a lookup table for ranges of IP addresses associated with various countries - the server obviously knows the client's

Assuming you have xkbvleds, that should show the status of whatever keyboard indicators X11 thinks ought to be lit up (which I think should work even if they don't actually exist). On Nov 21, 2012, at 2:59 PM, kishore kumar wrote: It is unfortunate that there is no led light for indicating

[OpenIndiana-discuss] zfs question - when can _rewriting_ a block of a file fail on out-of-space?

In a non-COW filesystem, one would expect that rewriting an already allocated block would never fail for out-of-space (ENOSPC). But I would expect that it could on ZFS - definitely if there was a snapshot around, as it would create a divergence from that snapshot (because both blocks would be

For foreign data access alone, and not boot or extreme performance, surely a fuse-based implementation would work, avoid even the appearance of license issues, and of course be much quicker and easier to debug. ___ OpenIndiana-discuss mailing list
