It would seem that neither works from within the sol8 zone, although
you do have access to ZFS style ACLs from the global zone.  Trivial
ACLs set through the global zone seem to be honored by the sol8 zone.
I have not tried setting any non-trivial ACLs on the underlying ZFS,
so I can't say whether they work as expected.

From: System Administration Guide: Solaris 8 Containers
( http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-2914/gfjbk?a=view )


Using ZFS

Although the zone cannot use a delegated ZFS dataset, the zone can 
reside on a ZFS file system. You can add a ZFS file system to share with 
the global zone through the zonecfg fs resource. See Step 7 in How to 
Configure a solaris8 Branded Zone.


Note that the setfacl and getfacl commands cannot be used with ZFS. When 
a cpio or a tar archive with ACLs set on the files is unpacked, the 
archive will receive warnings about not being able to set the ACLs, 
although the files will be unpacked successfully. These commands can be 
used with UFS.

I have a situation where I need to consolidate a few servers running
Solaris 9 and 8.  If the application doesn't run natively on Solaris
10 or Nevada, I was thinking of using Solars 9 or 8 branded zones.
My intent would be for the global zone to use ZFS boot/root; would I
be correct in thinking that this will be OK for the branded zones?


That's correct.  I have some solaris 8 zones running under cluster
control, where zonepath is zfs, and they're doing just fine.
Nothing special had to be done.

It would be a great idea to have a easy solution to give these 
privileges to a zone.


in zonecfg for a given zone,
set limitpriv=default,proc_lock_memory,proc_priocntl,sys_time

David Comay has an interesting blog post on this that can be found
here: http://blogs.sun.com/comay/entry/privilege_set_me_free
that explains the reasons for permissions additional to sys_time.

Re: [zones-discuss] RSC cards and zlogin -C to a zone clash of interest

 Anyone seen this before... Any thoughts ?

That's a common frustration in my experience.  OpenSSH, including Sun's
variation thereof also use ~. as the escape sequence, which can have
unintended consequences when connected remotely.

My solution has been to use `zlogin -e\@ -C zonename`, which sets
the zlogin escape sequence to @., and prevents the aforementioned
unintended consequences. :)
