Could very well be. I know it's being worked on, and I know that preview
binaries are available, perhaps in a package form as well. A little digging on
opensolaris.org will surely turn up what the current st

And also damage the system's consistency.
That is something one should *never* do. There are other ways, for instance,
delivering one's own ksh93 as a package in a separate directory until it makes
it into the build.

What do you mean by "routinely done on HP boxes inside of HP"?
Just like Solaris, HP-UX is well known for being forward compatible and
guaranteeing compatibility. I've never observed any of hp's products changing

One thing that's good to do on a new system is set up the "windex" files in
/usr/man /usr/sfw/man and any other man directories contained in your MANPATH
for use with the "apropos" and "whatis" commands. You can do this by:
cd /usr/man
/usr/lib/makewhatis .

To do this, cleanly, in such a way that it scales, you'd have to deliver your
own private copy of ksh93 in /opt/whatever/bin/.
This in turn implies that you'd have to compile ksh93 such, that he looks for
the system-wide configuration files (profile, etc.)
I still have this problem in b81 ...
Really hurting here as have a team of people looking to try this out and
wanting to move to OpenSolaris but are blocked as all operate on new hardware

Hi all,
I've recently cleared out a directory on a ZFS filesystem that had ~2
million files in it. Even after clearing out, listing the directory
takes in the order of two minutes. I thought it might be something to do
with the fact that the files were still being held in snapshots of the

I had the chance today to pose this question to Intel's "Lead

I know that this may be a silly question, but if I create (compile/link) an
executable under OpenSolaris x86, will it run under Solaris 10 x86, or do I
have to do it the other-way round?
Thanks,

Other way around - you have to compile on the oldest release you
want to support, so

The big problem that I have with non-directio is that buffering delays program
execution. When reading/writing files that are many times larger than RAM
without directio, it is very apparent that system response drops through the
floor- it can take several minutes for an ssh login to prompt for
