Too bad.  Naturally it isn't feasible to turn things off via ndd on omnios for 
just one target.
Is there any way to do that differently? That is, for only one target (and 
primarily ssh)?

Unfortunately as well seems my inquiry to the OI list went unheard, even after

Must not have any moderators any longer... oh bother. The easiest would be to 
have 5850 integrated into OI.
