Hi Solaris/Unix Experts,
I've installed Oracle Solaris 10 1/13 on a Sun Fire V490 Server via its external Serial Port using a Cisco Console Cable connected to my Laptop PC running SecureCRT terminal emulation software emulating VT100 Terminal.

Hi Sun Solaris Experts,
When I try to install Solaris 8 10/00 OS via the Solaris 8 Installation Disk on our Sun Fire V490 Server using the command , I get:
boot: cannot open kernel/sparcv9/unix
which means it can't find the unix kernel file on the installation disk .
By the way, I... (5 Replies)
So I have a lot of equipment in San Diego racks and there was a recent county-wide black out. Our data racks are supposedly on diesel generators. Most everything made it through the outage just fine without any issue.
But for whatever reason, one of our X4540's developed a quirky habit of... (3 Replies)
AMCRYPTSIMPLE(8) System Administration Commands AMCRYPTSIMPLE(8)NAME
amcryptsimple - reference simple crypt program for Amanda symmetric data encryption
SYNOPSIS
amcryptsimple to be called by Amanda only
DESCRIPTION
amcryptsimple calls gpg to perform symmetric data encryption on Amanda backup. amcryptsimple will search for the gpg program in the
following directories: /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin
amcryptsimple uses one passphrase to encrypt the Amanda data and uses the same passphrase to decrypt the Amanda backup data. amcryptsimple
uses AES256 as the symmetric cipher.
HOW TO CREATE PASSPHRASE
Store the passphrase inside the home-directory of the Amanda user ($amanda_user) and protect it with proper permissions:
echo my_secret_passphrase > ~$amanda_user/.am_passphrase
chown $amanda_user:disk ~$amanda_user/.am_passphrase
chmod 700 ~$amanda_user/.am_passphrase
NOTES
Choose a good passphrase and protect it properly. Backup data can only be restored with the passphrase. There is no backdoor.
If storing and securing passphrase in your environment presents challenges, Amanda provide public-key data encryption through amgpgcrypt.
Public-key encryption uses the public key to encrypt and uses the private key to decrypt.
