hi all,
I tried to install ZenOSS on Solaris, and with some patching and hacking made
it "work"... well, the processes finally start without errors, but then there
came an error which had no resolution as far as Google finds:
> 2007-08-20 20:50:46 ERROR zen.Ping: receiving packet error: short format

I started to document the steps that I made (some recent patching and hacking
is not yet documented)

The problem is, that this ZenPing problem when pinging the local interface
seems to be critical.
In general, I should say ZenOSS is a great software, but it's too much
Linux-oriented. Lots of hardcoded paths, some C header incompatibility, GCC
preference over CC, and so on.
Does it make sence to keep trying to port it to Solaris, or nobody needs that?
