I try to setup a very minimal system with a security quality somewhat firewall like. I don't like to fiddle with Solaris packages and patches, so I setup a very minimal system together with open source tools (to stay lazy, I decided to use OpenPKG). My work is on a jumpstart diskette, which sets up a system automagically. Status right now: - Core Solaris installs from CD-1, gets armored and reboots - on reboot fetches additional Solaris packages from CD-2 via ftp from a distribution server - bootstraps OpenPKG binary via ftp (packages reside in /opt/local, our preferred way to install open source) To come: - installs packages in default configuration pureftpd as anonymous ftp and virtual user ftp already finished What I have now is a fully unattended setup of an armored ftp server. Next will be an armored web server. I will publish my jumpstart diskette in December.
