Hi,

If you are running OpenSolaris (and not Solaris 10), your zone type is
"ipkg", not "native".  I believe that "ipkg" is the only zone type
available as of now on OpenSolaris. zones of type "ipkg" are
independent from the global zone.  They pull their own packages from
the sun pkg repo.  I'll add here that Solaris 10 zones of type
"native" share packages with the global zone, this is why when you
install apache or some other package in Solaris 10, and you make a
zone, the package shows up in the zone as well.

So, if you are running OpenSolaris, build a zone, and zlogin to the
zone, and do a pkg install <package> from within the zone, apache is
SUNWapch22, I don't know what the CoolStack is called now, but I use
one called amp-dev.  Make sure your zone's network config is all good
of course, you need to reach the pkg server from within the zone.
