The txzonemgr shell script provides a simple, menu-based GUI wizard for creating, installing, initializing, and booting labeled zones on a system on which Trusted Extensions is enabled. The script also provides menu items for networking options, name services options, and mak- ing the global zone a client of an existing LDAP server.

It takes no options and returns no values. ATTRIBUTES
