I'm still unsure as to the -s bit. The reasoning is based on the observation that the wrappers around smf present in /etc/init.d generally just use the plain -t. I think I would expect that svcadm stop/start would behave the same way as running the old rc scripts with stop and start. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
