With Solaris 9 now under consideration by IT professionals around the world, the systems on which they are running Solaris are coming under scrutiny. This week we resurrect our Solaris on Intel feature, replete with information about the other types of hardware systems on which Solaris is being run. Our resident expert Chris Baker has been answering questions for us since May not just about what it takes to upgrade to Solaris 8 on Intel, but what it will take to run Solaris 9 now that it's almost here. He frequently drops in on the Solaris on Intel discussions forum, so be sure to air your concerns there. Our nation is in a time when we all have to be on heightened security alert. IT managers and systems admins are working overtime to ensure their organizations' systems are safe. This week we add two more Security Experts to our Ask the Experts forum in order to bring you a) a more technical look at what it takes to keep Solaris safe and b) what the Security market looks like "under the Sun." We welcome Glenn Faden, who has worked as an architect and technical contributor in the Trusted Solaris Group at Sun for more than 12 years, and Martin Hack, who oversees the Trusted Solaris Operating Enviroment. Drop them a question, and check back here frequently for their expert answers. So long for now,
