Before I file a bug report, a couple of quick additional info: 1. I have tested "three" versions of 2008.11: RC2 (101b), 2008.11 (official release), and 2008.11+update. 2. I do not have either of the aforementioned problems with (the pre-official release) RC2. 3. With both 2008.11 and 2008.11+update, /usr/sbin is not in the PATH when invoking pfexec. 4. With both 2008.11 and 2008.11+update, I couldn't configure wireless connection (couldn't enter WPA password, which was grayed out). 5. With 2008.11+update, I couldn't even get wired connection. 6. I have seen the same problem both on bare metal and in VBox. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ indiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/indiana-discuss
