Yes. I do know how to install Solaris 8 on Intel
machines?

 which and how many partitions are essential ?

The essential partitions are /, /usr, /export/home and
of course the swap partition.

 My machine configuration is
 
 PentiumMMX 166, 64 MB RAM, 20 GB HardDisk

I would suggest upgrading the RAM to 128 MB minimum. 
You will need 128 MB swap space if you are using 64 MB
RAM  256 MB swap if you are using 128 MB RAM.

Cheers,

Surjo.

hey buddy
i believe the hotwire is an ethernet setup like mine.i m not sure bout tht.but if it 
is so then there's no problem at all coz the LAN card is detected at startup and u 
just have to provide the primary and secondary DNS'es along with the gateway address 
and ur own IP.
talk to the hotwire ppl for these details.they'll surely have something up their 
sleeves.
tell me if i was of any help.

Same here. Hotwire will add a forwarding entry into their firewalls for

In my case, the forwarding entry seems to get reset once or twice every

In my case it got reset within two days and I stopped asking again. I 
right now have automated the client, so when they bring down their auth 
server, my client keeps hammering them with connection requests. Serves 
them right!

Hotwire has good bw, but really really bad uptime here :( I guess it is time
i asked them about their 99% uptime gurantee. With my link, it is more like
75% nowadays :(
Well mine improved I think  from about 33% in august to about 80% in 
september. This month they have again deteriorated.

What can you expect from an ISP who provides 24 hour always-on 
connectivity *without* any kind of proper monitoring setup whatsoever. 
They dont even have a clue when their distributor goes offline because 
of a link problem. They rely on their customers to tell them that there 
is a problem and then they deal with it.

With my distributor, they even have an argument over whether the link is 
down or not. Seems their call center (which they call extreme 24x7 
support in a puja pamphlet i found today) have no clue of their network 
status at any time, and all they do is to manage subscribers and their 
server settings.

[ilugd] Verisign to pull down controversial Sitefinder service

VeriSign Freezes Search Service

By David McGuire
washingtonpost.com Staff Writer
Friday, October 3, 2003; 2:56 PM

VeriSign Inc., the firm that operates a key piece of the Internet's
address system, said it would temporarily shut down a new service that
makes money off the typos of Web users after the Internet's oversight
body threatened to take legal action against the company.

Earlier today, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(ICANN) President Paul Twomey sent a letter to VeriSign demanding that
the company take the service down or face legal consequences. Under
its contracts with VeriSign ICANN can impose up to $100,000 in fines
or strip the company of its authority to operate the registries that
handle dot-com and dot-net Internet addresses.

Without so much as a hearing, ICANN today formally asked us to shut
down the Site Finder service, said VeriSign spokesman Tom Galvin. We
will accede to their request while we explore all of our options.

The Mountain View, Calif.-based company refused ICANN's request last
week to take down the service long enough for technical experts to
determine whether it was damaging the Internet.

ICANN officials were not immediately available for comment.

Critics say that VeriSign abused its monopoly power over the
registries with Site Finder, which steers millions of Web surfers a
day to its own online search directory when they incorrectly type
Internet addresses.

Site Finder offers links to sites with names similar to the user's
original query, along with a search box and Web directory full of
advertising. The directory competes with similar search services from
the likes of America Online, Microsoft and others. Its ads are
provided by Overture, a company being bought by Yahoo Inc.

VeriSign could easily generate $100 million in revenue annually from
Site Finder by selling sponsored results to search terms, said Mark
Lewyn, chairman of Reston, Va.-based Paxfire Inc., which develops
systems to redirect Internet traffic.

The move irked companies like AOL and Microsoft, which lost traffic to
their own search sites. Two other companies have filed lawsuits
against VeriSign, claiming its service represents unfair competition:
Orlando-based Popular Enterprises LLC, owner of the Netster search
engine, and Scottsdale, Ariz.-based Go Daddy Software Inc., which
sells Internet addresses.

VeriSign also angered the close-knit group of engineers and scientists
who are familiar with the technology underpinning the Internet. They
say that Site Finder undermines the worldwide Domain Name System,
causing e-mail systems, spam-blocking technology and other
applications to malfunction.

VeriSign said the claims are overblown.

There is no data to indicate the core operation of the domain name
system or the stability of the Internet has been adversely affected,
VeriSign's Galvin said. ICANN is using anecdotal and isolated issues
in an attempt to assert a dubious right to regulate non-registry
services.

Before agreeing to take down Site Finder, VeriSign had promised to
work with the Internet community to iron out any glitches triggered by
Site Finder.

Site Finder has triggered the first real showdown between VeriSign --
the world's largest Internet addressing company -- and ICANN, the
group created by the U.S. government to bring order and competition to
the growing online world.

War is breaking out between the regulators and the people they
regulate. This is a real power struggle [over] who controls the rules
on the Internet going forward, said said Paxfire's Lewyn.
[end quote]

ICANN's rather strong letter to Verisign is at:
http://www.icann.org/correspondence/twomey-to-lewis-03oct03.htm

Among other stuff, it includes:

...
Based on the information currently available to us, it appears that
these changes have had a substantial adverse effect on the core
operation of the DNS, on the stability of the Internet, and on the
relevant domains, and may have additional adverse effects in the
future. These effects appear to be significant, including effects on
web browsing, certain email services and applications, sequenced
lookup services and a pervasive problem of incompatibility with other
established protocols. In addition, the responses of various persons
and entities to the changes made by VeriSign may themselves adversely
affect the continued effective functioning of the Internet, the DNS
and the .com and .net domains. Under these circumstances, the only
prudent course of action consistent with ICANN's coordination mission
is to insist that VeriSign suspend these changes pending further
evaluation and study, including (but certainly not limited to) the
public meeting already scheduled by ICANN's Security and Stability
Advisory Committee on 7 October in
