A manifest should go in: /var/svc/manifest/site/... - for site-local additions /var/svc/manifest/... - for everything else A method should go in: /lib/svc/method - for things which ship with Solaris /opt/packagename/... - for add-on packages (though methods are just executables; they can go anywhere) See this thread: http://www.opensolaris.org/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=50351 for more details. This question come up quite often; we should really add it to the FAQ. Dave
