first, I'm quite new to solaris.
I've installed solaris 10 basic (item 4 on the install-menue).
now I had to realize that I don't have any option for connecting the machine from remote. ssh isn't even installed although I've coosed 'yes' for remote access. no matter what solaris is meaning whith that point.
so, I would like to install ssh additional. but I have no idea how solaris is managing the devices. I have no automount. wouldn't be a problem at all, but I don't see any log about accessing the DVD by reason of the basic install I guess. so, normaly stil wouldn't be a problem. for what we have the internet. but I even don't have wget or fetch! (wtf? | why? | anything else there?)
So how can I find out which device I have to mount get access to the DVD?
I even don't understand the solaris log-system. where are what kind of log files stored? I have a /var/adm directory with logfiles and a /var/log directory. so what will be stored where?
further, I'm used to configure the syslog on my machines by generating a
Code:
*.* /var/log/allmessages
-like conf. where can I configure that on solaris?
/etc/syslog.conf doesn't seem to like that config.
beside, I have some question on zfs. I've also installed another machine to do some zfs tests.
in few words I need a setup with two disks where one disk is a system disk (whole zfs) and the second will be periodicly sync with the first.
I do it with
Code:
zfs send -R rpool@today | zfs recv -F -d rbackup
but I ran in the problem that after a reboot (from the first disk) / couldn't be mounted becouse solaris/zfs also try to mount the backuppool on / I guess. / on the first disk is mounted anyway but the failure coused some problems which results not to start the ssh server.
it won't work.
I don't understand why solaris is ignoring the -m or altroot options?
after I did a
Code:
zfs set mountpoint=/xyz
it's work lije expected.
so, I wonder where are the differeces between zfs create and zpool create?
and how can I set the second disk an offline? I've allways get an error message when I try so.
thanks for answers and sorry for my english folks.
Hey, I'm new to Linux. I have a few questions about it. I run Slackware.

I'm trying to find out what all is involved with setting up SFTP?
1) Do Solaris machines come with a SFTP server and client already installed.
2) If so would I have to install SFTP clients on windows, if I want to transfer files to a Solaris box?
3) If SFTP doesn't come prepackaged would I... (1 Reply)
