Sorry for the second post.... I should point out that the one consideration for CSW or even non-Express Studio releases is that toasting the /var/sadm package data will cause you problems. I personally don't care about the integrity of the package database... that drives a lot of people crazy, but I take freedom over antiquated thinking. Worst case, re-installing CSW is quick and easy. benr. _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
