That shouldn't be a problem.

Besides being a bit odd, which probably doesn't matter here, bash has historically been in only the SUNWCall metacluster -- meaning that it's not installed by default, and the user has to specifically ask for it. By contrast, ksh93 is in SUNWCmreq, and is thus on all systems. (I doubt that will matter for OpenSolaris IPS, but since S10 seems to be a target, it does matter there.) -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
