Operating Systems Solaris Where to start Post 302242878 by DukeNuke2 on Friday 3rd of October 2008 06:41:08 AM

all you need for solaris 10 is at:
http://docs.sun.com

but the best start would be to forget all about windows and do a clean start... most people look for things they know from an other os and thats the problem. solaris is all about editing files... so a good start is learning "vi". next is installing and patching a solaris installation. learn how to add new software (pkgadd...). setup and manage network interfaces (ifconfig...). learn how to access the mashine via "ssh" and how to transfer files between boxes (scp, nfs, samba).
