best way to identify non packages software
what is the best way to identify non-packaged software installed on solaris systems? also after identifying the software is there a way to add some sort of package entry that will display the software even though it is not a package?

If you want to check if given file belongs to some package, then you can use this:
Code:
pkgchk -l -P /path/to/file

What are you actually trying to do? Find what after-market applications are installed?
