Hi,
just wanted to see if anyone had considered/was working on something like this.
I hear the laws around the export of strong crypto are not as strict as they
used to be, but that there are still some countries that you are not allowed
distribute it to.
Are there any tools for identifying c

If memory serves CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE should kill X and you will see a brief
flash of console. SMF will kick in and restart X though. It will eventually

If you are keen to play around with ZFS, you can also assign a partition on a
disk to ZFS. So you could do some thing like this:
Disk0
slice 0 / 10G
slice 1 swap 1G
slice 7 assigned to ZFS
Disk1
slice 7 assigned to ZFS
That way you could mirror your home dir on a ZFS pool, do snapshots...etc.,
The usual stock answer: It depends.
Unless you need a sparc machine for some specific reason you're proably better
off with the AMD box. Since its a workstation, responsiveness would be a factor

You're out of luck I'm afraid. You just have to download the ISO and upgrade
from that. Solaris doesn't have anything like apt-get :(
