I have a friend who is thinking about using OpenSolaris to deploy this huge
project of his that runs on Berkeley DB (see link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_DB ). Obviously we want to take advantage
of things like Zones and ZFS as well as the performance, stability and remote
management
I don't see any licensing issues, since Berkely DB should probably be covered
by the BSD license, right? So how come there's no SUNWbdb in Indiana? Think
about it, the following are just a few of the thing are are reportedly
dependent on Berkeley DB to run effectively:
(1) Sun Grid Engine
I found postfix in the Blastwave repository, but installing postfix just to get
some kind of convoluted access to Berkely DB seems like a very convoluted and
barkwards way of doing things to me:
r...@zone1:~# pkg search -r postfix | grep -v webmin
INDEX ACTIONVALUE P
I've been googling around opensolaris.org and so far all I found was this:

Wrong. Sun has a license with Sleepycat/Oracle for commercial support
and distribution of Berkeley DB. I don't know if that's why you're not
finding it or not, just

Thanks Alan. I was misinformed about the license then.
