Found the problem. I had disabled rpcbind and inetd, since I didn't want to run those services in the zone. Apparently, milestone/multi-user-server has a dependency on smserver, which has a dependency on inetd. If smserver fails to start, none of your rc3.d legacy startup scripts will run :
# svcs -x svc:/milestone/multi-user-server:default svc:/milestone/multi-user-server:default (multi-user plus exports milestone) State: offline since Sat May 17 11:54:02 2008 Reason: Service svc:/network/rpc/smserver:default is uninitialized. See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-GE See: init(1M) Impact: This service is not running. # svcs -x svc:/network/rpc/smserver:default svc:/network/rpc/smserver:default (removable media management) State: uninitialized since Sat May 17 12:07:26 2008 Reason: Restarter svc:/network/inetd:default is not running. See: http://sun.com/msg/SMF-8000-5H See: rpc.smserverd(1M) Impact: This service is not running. All I had to do is "svcadm disable smserver". Now all is well. Even tho smserver isn't running, it didn't fail, so the dependency is met... Oh yes, and legacy startup scripts don't echo on the console, but into /var/svc/log/milestone-multi-user-server:default.log, like so: [ May 17 12:18:55 Enabled. ] [ May 17 12:19:00 Executing start method ("/sbin/rc3"). ] This is the /sbin/rc3 script running Executing legacy init script "/etc/rc3.d/S16boot.server".
