When it comes to application development based on open source products
I'll give FreeBSD the edge. Installing and maintaining postgresql,
apache, (ruby on) rails, php, ImageMagick etc. from FreeBSD's
ports-collection is very easy, trying to get ImageMagick later than
6.3.0 on solaris on x86
I'd like to point out this stupidity in the localization of scp/ssh,
that can have *VERY* dangerous consequences (like being
locked out of your server).
At the first connection ssh asks you if you want to continue the
connection towards an unknown host, but the italian-localized

I just wanted to query the OpenSolaris community and see who, if anyone, out
there is using the latest version of this OS in production as web or
application server.
I have been using FreeBSD, but because OpenSolaris is available and starting
to mature a little, I was thinking about
Is it just me, or is this something that no one wants to say out aloud?
This is an ENTERPRISE level operating system from SUN, one of the big dogs!
And yet, even an initial install seems to be a nightmare. The installer
interface looks like it was designed in the 70s, it can't find half the
Should I read that as Sun doesn't really want to make Solaris a mainstream
O/S? Because if they really are (Why else would OpenSolaris exist?) I don't
get the whole who cares about GUI, it's all int he command line! concept.
Command lines though useful in doing batch processing and clumping
Rename the sol10 directory on the driver disk to sol11 and it should work.

Works like a charm! Thank you. :-)

Hi.
I have downloaded the smart array driver from HP's site so I can
install solaris on my HP DL380 G5. During install I add the driver and
proceed with the installation. But when I try the same with any
opensolaris release it says no drivers were loaded. If I exit to the
command line and
What is the better Virt engine for Solaris?
Vmware's fusion does seem a tad faster than parallels. So I'd go for fusion.

Do you actually need the automounter? Personally, on every box I install I
disabled the automounter and use /home as usual.
Probably not. From my FreeBSD-background I'm accustomed having all
users directly beneath /home. Solaris has been very much on and off
for the past two years, mosttly
A lot of people on the net will explain how to setup dhcp, but they do not
also state what should be in other files in the /etc dir.
I ad troubles applying a static address as well. And some of the
guides are related to older versions of solaris as well so they may
still apply but there are

Nothing is supposed to show up; it's all on demand.
Try: ls -l /home/clause
Thank you for all who helped me in this matter.
The /home-mapping is in place, I have to manually to type 'ls

Aah, there is a workaround! :-)
Changed my password to six characters, voila:

I noticed that your using smbpasswd for your passdb backend. Try
changing that to tdbsam and then add your user again: smbpasswd -a

I tried bo no avail unfortunately.

I'm running build 70a and I share files with my mac using samba as well.
However, I use the sharemgr gui app to selectively enable/disable sharing of
directories. When you connect to the opensolaris box, what is the path that
you enter in the OS X finder? Since you have browseable = no in
Can yo try adding a share that guest users can access? Add the following to
your smb.conf file:
[test]
path=/export/test
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
public = yes
Also, create the /export/test directory and put a file in it:
mkdir /export/test
chmod a+rw test
echo this is a test
Hi.
Have enabled samba using 'svcadm enable samba' and have copied
/etc/sfw/smb.conf-default to /etc/sfw/smb.conf and have permitted my
local network. But I can't login using my mac os x finder. I can log
into other samba-services (on FreeBSD).
I've used the build-in samba service, ie. no
In the smb.conf file, did you change the workgroup = MYGROUP to the domain
that the Mac is in?
We don't have any Windows domain-server, only workgroups. :-) We are
approx. 10 mac- and windows-clients.
I can log into the ZETTA workgroup which is configured on our FreeBSD
samba-service. I
Can you post the smb.conf file you are using on the Solaris machine?
Shure.

Have you created the smbpasswd file ? Have you entered the passwords using
smbpasswd ?
Yes, I used 'smbpasswd -a username' + password. I assume that the
smbpasswd file is created at that time. It has on FreeBSD.
