In effect, you can't use any independent zones on a Solaris system with TX (Trusted Extensions) installed. Each zone on a TX system represents a security label. The system as a whole (the global zone and _all_ of the non-global zones) appears as a unified system with multiple labels to the user. This means that zones on a TX system are essentially an implementation detail, and can't be used to create independent Solaris environments. -- James Carlson, KISS Network <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 1 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ zones-discuss mailing list [email protected]
