Liane, Brian,

The book you cite is a Solaris 10 book. I have updated the original doc bug 
that was submitted almost three years ago:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6423740

But I am wondering now whether this is still a high priority to fix or whether 
we should just focus on making sure the information is in the OpenSolaris 
documentation. Brian, it sounds like if you found newer documentation, you 
wouldn't have been using the Solaris 10 book - is that correct?

I see some documentation here
"SMF Concepts - System Administration Guide: Basic Administration"
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/SYSADV1/dzhid.html#esini
and there might be more. Have you by now found the answers to your questions in 
the OpenSolaris documentation?

Please give me your opinion: Is it still important to update the Solaris 10 
Application Packaging guide?
