Use the "unzip" utility, similar to gunzip, but without the g and a

. You have to use BOTH ARP and RARP to netboot a sun via tftp,
so add the rarp line, just as the arp line:
[root@gaea /root] rarp -s pallas 08:00:20:1a:4a:92
That should get you going. There is no need for bootp whatsoever.

I think what you want might be accomplished with a simple javascript
popup window. It's pretty straightforward, here's an example:
function popupwin(URL)
{
window.open(URL, 'title',
'toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,width
em. So what's the problem?

I am not interested in opinions as to whether or not it's a good idea to
remove qmail and switch back to sendmail, I am simply asking how to do it.
It seems to me that a flame war is unnecessary here. We all have our own
opinions, and I happen to be quite fond of qmail. I simply wish to k

These are not the kind of answers/questions I'm looking for, and as such I
will not answer them. If you have a useful answer,
Just curious, is it reasonable to assume that I could follow the qmail
install FAQs backwards (more or less) to remove qmail and switch back to
sendmail?

What does it do when you try it? And have you checked in fdisk during the
