If you are running under any build above build 101b (the official 2008.11 build), then your pkg authority should have pkg.opensolaris.org/dev has the preferred authority. Try setting

        Thanks for the response Sriram (and Danek).

        I should have been more precise in my post.  I already tried
        setting 'dev' as my preferred authority and I was getting
        a weird 404 error... as if a file/link wasn't found on the server.

        I finally got the JDK installed, but I had to unset both authorities
        and then set only 'dev' to finally get it to work.  Very odd.

$ pfexec pkg refresh

With OpenSolaris 2008.11 and above, I think, you don't need to explicitly issue a refresh command.

        Is that true?  I didn't know that.

        Thanks again,

Frank G.
