Remote services during Solaris installation
I've installed Solaris 10 (05-08) on a SPARC platform
During the installation I was prompted with the question below. I selected yes to enable remote services.
Does anyone know what services this option enables?
- Enabling remote services ----------------------------------------
Would you like to enable network services for use by remote clients?
Selecting "No" provides a more secure configuration in
which Secure Shell is the only network service provided to
remote clients. Selecting "Yes" enables a larger set of
services as in previous Solaris releases. If in doubt, it is
safe to select "No" as any services can be individually enabled
after installation.
Note: This choice only affects initial installs. It doesn't affect upgrades.

[X] Yes
[ ] No

Hi All,
We have an ungent requirement of remote installation of a Sun server as we can't attach cd/dvd rom with the server. Is there any way like NFS installation in linux to complete it?
We need any possible way except Jumpstart as it has a long procedure to set.
Thanks,

netservices
netservices(1M) System Administration Commands netservices(1M)
NAME
netservices - enable or disable network services
SYNOPSIS
netservices open
netservices limited
DESCRIPTION
The netservices command uses the Solaris service management facility, smf(5), to control services that accept over the network from remote
clients.
When netservices is invoked with the limited command-line argument, all network services except the secure shell daemon, sshd(1M), are
either disabled or constrained to respond to local requests only.
Invoking netservices with the open command-line argument enables a large set of network services, as in previous releases of Solaris.
To customize the configuration set enabled by netservices, use svcadm(1M) to enable or disable individual services. Use svccfg(1M) to set
properties that determine whether a service accepts input from remote clients. See the man pages for individual services for the names of
service instances and their properties.
Note that the netservices command has an interface stability of Obsolete.
