Hi Guys, Just wanted to let you know that with help of system-tools-backends maintainers I was working on system-tools-backends and gnome-system-tools frontends to bring GUI tools up to the level when average user could easy configure NexentaOS, new exciting Ubuntu GNU/Solaris based operating system!
I ported almost all system-tools-backends components and did quite a lot of bug fixing and SunOS-awareness fixes in gnome-system-tools frontends. Specific OpenSolaris/Nexenta features fully supported: * SMF management (start,stop,view) * dfstab NFS and Samba shares * native OpenSolaris Wifi network locator and configuration using wificonfig and native wireless drivers * native NIC interfaces configuration which utilizes existing configuration schema, i.e. /etc/netmasks, /etc/networks, /etc/hostname.$dev, etc * native NTP client and timezone support * disk administration with UFS partition support Backends are fully integrated into Nexenta desktop, for instance, missing NTP or Samba packages will be requested via Synaptic package manager and will be downloaded via popup GUIs. Nautilus integrated with disks-admin as well as the rest of tools spread out through the GNOME's menu and options. Check out screenshot at my homepage: http://www.gnusolaris.org/gswiki/ErastBenson If you are not Nexenta OS user yet, than become one and help us make it the best OS environment available around! Enjoy and happy new year!!! Erast _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
